THYNGS Selects Pareteum Cloud Platform for Multi-Year IoT Connectivity Services Contract

Pareteum Cloud Platform to Support THYNGS’ Smart City and Connected Infrastructure Service Rollouts in United States and Mexico

NEW YORK, NEW YORK, April 27, 2017 – Pareteum Corporation (NYSE MKT: TEUM), (“Pareteum” or the “Company”), a leading international provider of mobile networking software and services to the Mobile Network and Internet of Things markets, today announced that its Global Mobility Cloud Platform has been chosen by THYNGS Wireless, LLC as its Internet of Things (“IoT”) management and connectivity platform under a new three-year agreement.

THYNGS Wireless, LLC, a newly launched multi-SIM based IoT solution for the Smart City future is launching with KAPTYN, a leading Smart Mobility company whose growing portfolio of technology contracts has taken them to four US cities including 90% of the Las Vegas taxi market, boasting over 60 million rides since inception and 2,000 cars in service at any given time. KAPTYN also holds presence in New York, becoming one of the first vendors approved for the NYC Taxi and Limousine Commission’s Vehicle Safety Technology Pilot Program. Under terms of the three-year agreement, THYNGS will utilize Pareteum’s Global Mobility Cloud Platform to provide wireless network connectivity and device data management in support of new and existing KAPTYN IoT deployments.

“THYNGS and KAPTYN share our vision of a connected world. Each day, millions of devices become vital sources of information that can help monitor and improve the efficient operations of our cities and the health and welfare of their citizens, and we are pleased to have been selected to support these visionary organizations as they deploy their IoT programs,” said Hal Turner, Pareteum’s Executive Chairman.

KAPTYN is led by Andrew Meyers, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, a seasoned veteran of the for-hire transportation sector who’s strategic vision is to drive KAPTYN’s growth and development by providing the Taxi industry the tools necessary to compete in the new digital demand-driven world.

“Connectivity and software is extremely applicable to the heart of the car. We’re creating a foundation of codes that is adaptable to any specific need of the industry. Our software is designed to make a credible sync with the vehicle itself, which is able to exchange data with the insurance provider and manufacturer. Going forward the commercial sector needs to be able to build with the sync in the car itself and not third party devices, that’s exactly what KAPTYN provides,” added Andrew Meyers.

Sergio Fernandez de Cordova, investor & Co-founder of THYNGS and KAPTYN, commented, “The opportunity of IoT is vast as its benefits are becoming clearer to municipalities looking to modernize their infrastructure to connect all things to fleet operators such as taxis and buses where our technology is helping to improve safety and convenience. After our evaluation of available solutions in the marketplace, we chose Pareteum’s Global Mobility Cloud because it allows us to uniquely leverage a single platform combining multi-location wireless connectivity with a robust subscriber management system which enables us to better support our growing network of devices today and into the future.”

“Earlier this year we significantly upgraded the capabilities of our Global Mobility Cloud Platform, enabling support for advanced messaging functionality required by internet-enabled and connected devices such as IoT. Today’s contract is further evidence that the industry is beginning to take notice of our new capabilities, something we are committed to building into a valuable new revenue stream for the Company,” added Vic Bozzo, Chief Executive Officer of Pareteum.
