Artilium - Notes to Editors

Founded in 1995, Artilium develops and sells software solutions to telecoms companies and service providers under its ARTA family of products. Its clients include BT, Vodafone Spain, Ziggo (NL), Belgacom Mobile (BE) Telenetand KPN.

ARTA enables telecoms companies to market to consumers in a highly targeted manner, creating packages which are tailor made to the precise requirements of small groups of subscribers such as a municipality or interest group.

The ability to offer a commercially viable solution for customers to sell their services to small groups (e.g. supporters of a football team), is possible using other technologies but substantially more expensive.

ARTA technology provides:

- A low cost solution for creating a commercial communications network for communities and companies. Used by major Mobile Virtual Network Operators and smaller Operators targeting subscriber bases of less than 1.000

- A low cost, low energy use mobile phone based alternative to GPS for movement tracking for customers ranging from haulage firms through to families wishing to know where their children are.

- A real time, low cost rerouting of calls to provide the cheapest solution to Mobile Network Operator's and Mobile Virtual Network Operators
