NEW YORK - Feb. 25, 2013 - Globo (LSE-AIM: GBO), the international leader and technology innovator delivering Enterprise Mobility Management and Telecom software products and solutions, today announced it has signed a distribution agreement with Ingram Micro Inc. (NYSE: IM). Under the terms of the agreement, the Ingram Micro Mobility division will provide Globo's revolutionary enterprise mobility solutions for the Enterprise and Small and Medium Business (SMB) market to authorised resellers in the United States and Canada.

Ingram Micro Mobility will act as an exclusive distributor in North America for Globo's new product, GO!Enterprise - Enterprise Mobility in a Box®, which will be showcased at GSMA's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona beginning 25 February 2013, with commercial launch scheduled within the following month.

"The addition of Globo's GO!Enterprise platform to our lineup allows Ingram Micro resellers to provide an even wider portfolio of solutions to serve the growing number of customers looking to mobilise their business operations," said Bashar Nejdawi, president Ingram Micro Mobility, North America. "We're committed to offering products to our reseller customers that provide them with ever-expanding opportunities for success in a competitive marketplace and Globo's portfolio of mobile solutions is an essential addition to our mobile offering."

Now SMBs do not have to settle for a scaled down enterprise solution and can find Enterprise Mobility products anywhere, even on the shelves of major retailers.

 

"Enterprise mobility is a strategic initiative for organizations of all sizes and our product strategy is designed to deliver to the widest range of customers exactly what they require.Enterprise Mobility in a Box® came of out this business mindset. The distribution agreement with Ingram Micro Mobility complements exactly what we envisaged; the widespread cross-channel availability of a solution crafted for SMBs made available through one of the leading IT and mobile distributors in the world and addressing the most mature markets of USA and Canada in one move,"said Costis Papadimitrakopoulos, Globo's CEO.
