Digita, a Finnish technology company specialising in broadcast networks and telecom services, has selected Netmore’s operator platform-as-a-service (PaaS) to expand, optimise and scale its LoRaWan capabilities for the delivery of IoT applications in Finland.

Domestic network operator Digita offers a complete infrastructure for IoT services including a nationwide public LoRaWan and private network build outs based on user needs.

With a growing base of digital transformation deployments across the utility, district heating, smart building and logistics verticals, Digita selected Swedish LoRaWan operator Netmore’s PaaS offering to reduce the number of systems needed to deliver IoT connectivity. In addition to streamlining its operations, Digita benefits from economies of scale derived from the shared efficiencies of Netmore’s platform, which is used to manage core network and connected device services for its carrier-grade LoRaWans.

Digita supports its domestic customers with cost-effective future-proof IoT connectivity and, through international roaming cooperation, can now easily expand into markets outside of Finland where Netmore and its partners operate LoRaWans. Further, Netmore customers have immediate access to the Digita network to support business opportunities in Finland, providing Digita with more customer revenue streams.

“Designed for massive IoT and for provisioning and managing millions of devices, Netmore PaaS provides the advanced features and future-proof connectivity we need to scale our IoT business,” said Digita vice president Tuomas Kolkka. “Our companies have a shared vision of what is needed to support digital transformation across industries and an alignment on customer-centric business practices that will drive adoption faster.”

This collaboration expands the IoT capabilities available to businesses in Finland, facilitating seamless integration of digital options that promote economic growth and environmental sustainability.

“The growing demand for reliable and scalable IoT in support of resource conservation and sustainability initiatives is driving the adoption of Netmore PaaS across the globe,” said Andreas Stenhager, chief commercial officer at Netmore Group. “Digita’s strong market presence in Finland will enable new innovations in the delivery of digital services and we are excited to have them join our growing operator PaaS ecosystem. Together, we are setting a new standard for IoT deployments and digital transformation, not just in Finland, but across the broader European and global markets.”

An expert in network and device migrations, Netmore ensures an interruption-free migration process, keeping IoT operations running smoothly with no downtime.
