In India, we work with the Governments of Karnataka and Telangana, which have taken the initiative to consolidate all their citizen-based services into a common platform. For this, we have deployed our IMIdigital platform, and have integrated it with respective government’s platforms, says Sudarshan Dharmapuri, Senior Vice President (Product Management), IMImobile, in an interview with Sudheer Goutham of Elets News Network (ENN).
How has IMImobile’s initial experience been and what is its current presence across the globe?
IMImobile was established in India in 1999 with an aim to capitalise on the strength of a product company using Indian intellectual resources. Since that was the time when the telecom boom was about to happen, initially our vision was to focus on mobile data space and work with telecom operators and enterprises to provide them with a mobile data platform. Some of our early successes came as a result of working with mobile operators because they wanted to launch an array of consumer-facing revenue-generating services. These services included infotainment-oriented content services (currently called the value-added services segment), with features such as portals, subscription services and content services for subscribers, which could be monetised.
Gresham House Strategic PLC (LON:GHS) has a 42.1% ownership of IMImobile PLC, correct as of 31 January 2018 month end NAV announcement, released 1 February 2018.
