Memorandum of Understanding signed with China Telecom

Phorm (AIM: PHRM), a leading internet personalisation technology company, is pleased to announce that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding ("MoU") with China Telecom Corporation Limited ("China Telecom") and certain of its associated group entities to become its preferred strategic partner in the field of 'Big Data' technology and advertising operations.

Highlights:

· Memorandum of Understanding is valid for three years

· Establishes Phorm as China Telecom's strategic partner for 'Big Data' and advertising

· Agreement covers a wide-range of proposed initiatives

· Reinforces Phorm's continued progress in China

 

Phorm has signed a three year MoU with China Telecom, the world's largest wireline telecommunications, code division multiple access (CDMA) mobile network and broadband Internet services provider.

 

This agreement further reinforces the progress that the Company has made since the launch of its commercial operations with three Internet Service Providers ("ISPs") in the People's Republic of China as announced on 27 January 2014. Phorm is continuing to build its commercial operations and expects to launch with further ISPs in China later this year. The China Telecom group has operations in 31 Chinese provinces and over 100 million broadband customers.

 

Phorm is delighted to have been selected to become China Telecom's preferred strategic partner, not only for advertising, but also for its 'Big Data' initiatives and looks forward to continuing to work closely with China Telecom on a range of innovative products and services.
