Telcordia Launches MVNO Services

OSS provider Telcordia Technologies Inc. has launched a new hosted MVNO product to help service providers offer prepaid wireless services without owning or managing a network.

We are creating new business opportunities by eliminating barriers to entry and removing the burden of building and managing expensive and complex network infrastructure and applications, says Doug Patterson, vice president of telecom services for Telcordia. Our new hosted solution will enable MVNOs to deploy and scale quickly, empowering them to capture market share by appealing to a defined target market and offering them the services they want in a reliable and profitable way.

One of the first companies to use Telcordias service is Movida, an MVNO that recently announced its prepaid product and that will target the Hispanic population through a distribution agreement with Wal-Mart.
