Wmode to incorporate GoMedia into its ClearMode(R) offering -
BARCELONA, Spain, February 16, 2010 - Wmode, the developer and operator of the ClearMode(R) managed service,
announced today that they have signed a distribution agreement with Momac
that allows Wmode to offer the award winning GoMedia suite of services in
the North American market. Wmode will begin targeting media and publishing
companies with the full GoMedia suite, operated as a managed service. In
parallel, Wmode plans to tightly integrate certain pieces of GoMedia with its
own ClearMode services. Initially, both GoPortal and GoPublish will be used
for designing and maintaining the ClearMode storefronts for Smart phones
and higher end devices.
"Momac's GoMedia solution is a perfect addition to our ClearMode
managed service. Their portal design tools and storefront publishing
capabilities will give us a great deal of flexibility to create extremely
rich user experiences on Smart phones." Stated Emanuel Bertolin, CEO at
Wmode. "We believe GoMedia's functionality will become a very important part
of Wmode's overall Smart Portal strategy for operators that wish to offer
consumers a way to access account information, subscribe to new services and
manage their existing voice and data subscriptions."
Wmode will continue to manage ClearMode and GoMedia as a managed service
for mobile and broadband operators. The two companies are also in discussions
about a reciprocal agreement that will allow Momac to integrate parts of the
ClearMode solution with their GoMedia services for the European market.
"Wmode is a global leader in our industry and we couldn't have asked for
a stronger distribution partner in the North American market" Stated Sham
Careem, Managing Director of Momac UK. "We also believe that the ClearMode
solution offers Momac capabilities that when integrated with GoMedia will set
us apart from our competitors. Wmode has many years of experience managing
services such as Ring Back Tones, Media portals and App Stores for mobile
operators around the world."
