HOLMDEL,
N.J., April 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Vonage,
a global leader in cloud communications helping businesses
accelerate their digital transformation and a part of Ericsson
(NASDAQ: ERIC), has been named Gold Winner for 5G at the Merit
Awards for Telecom, for its global network platform.
With the Vonage Communications Platform (VCP) and Ericsson's
powerful 5G network, Vonage has spearheaded the creation of a
global network platform for open innovation, driving revenue
benefits to the entire ecosystem - Communications Service Providers
(CSPs), enterprises and developers - through new, advanced use
cases - from optimized logistics to cloud gaming, connected
vehicles, remote patient monitoring, and more.
Vonage is working with multiple operators in Europe and North
America including Deutsche Telekom, Orange, Telefonica,
Vodafone, AT&T, Verizon, and Telkomsel to unlock programmable
network capabilities for developers, and with KDDI Web
Communications in Japan, who is
reselling its Communications APIs and Vonage Conversational
Commerce. Vonage also announced a collaboration with AWS to
leverage communications and network APIs to accelerate the
availability of new solutions to developers, along with a new
fraud protection solution to be made available in the
AWS Marketplace.
Vonage has also launched Vonage Network Registry, a
first-to-market developer registration service to accelerate and
simplify developer access to network APIs. The service will also
facilitate CSPs in effectively scaling the consumption of network
APIs by standardizing the approval process and granting access to
network providers' APIs for Application Service Providers
(ASPs).
"We are thrilled to have been recognized by the Merit Awards for
Telecom in the 5G category," said Colin
Brown, Vice President, Product, Global Network Platform at
Vonage. "Ericsson and Vonage are leading the development of a
global network platform by opening the network for third-party
developers to make capabilities universally available for further
innovation. With developers thriving from a well-built and
supported API platform, enterprises can grow from new, unique and
customizable API innovations while communication service providers
benefit from network monetization and growth opportunities. We
expect the demand for new services, innovations and value creation
enabled by 5G to grow significantly over the coming years."
Created in 2022, the Merit Awards acknowledges companies that
have contributed to the continued growth of their respective
markets. The judging panel is made up of respected journalists,
executives, consultants, entrepreneurs and educators.
