AS fewer people talk to each other long-distance through conventional voice call channels, an alliance has been formed to capitalise on machines talking to each other.
The SingTel-linked Bridge Alliance, a coalition of telcos, has formed the region's largest Machine-to-Machine (M2M) alliance for just this purpose. Bridge Alliance operates through Bridge Mobile Pte Ltd, in which SingTel has an effective equity interest of 33.8 per cent, as of its last annual report.
While the Bridge Alliance has 31 operators as partners, its M2M iteration has 11 Asia-Pacific telcos, such as Airtel (India), AIS (Thailand), CSL (Hong Kong), Globe Telecom (Philippines), Maxis (Malaysia) and SingTel.
