The carriers changed their thinking. So we changed our name. Introducing…VOX Solutions

Names matter when you're building a business. You need your name to be memorable, understandable to everyone, and also to reflect exactly what your company stands for.?

11 years ago, when we launched our first company, we succeeded in all of the above. We created a wholesale business to help carriers enter the emerging market for enterprise voice and text services.?

Naturally, we called our company VOX Carrier. VOX is a lovely short word that means “Voice” in Latin. Easy to read and say. And carrier? Well, it was perfect for a company targeting MNOs' voice & SMS carrier services.?

Three years later, in 2014, we spotted another big opportunity. It become obvious to us that there was rising demand from MNOs for technical solutions such as:

• Anti-fraud?
• IoT SIM management?
• Voice & SMS firewalls
• Analytics
• CPaaS?

As the saying goes, this was where "the puck was heading", so we decided to skate towards it. We gathered all these activities together under a new company – VOX Technologies.

It was a successful move. Over the past 10 years, the two companies successfully deployed 400+ Partners and Customers, five data centres, three R&D centres and helped over 3 billion people communicate safely.?

But in business, things never stay the same. The voice and messaging industry evolved. First, carriers changed their thinking. They became more open to the idea of outsourcing and partnerships. Second, new players came into the space. Mobile ceased to be the preserve of MNOs, as various OTTs chipped away at their markets.

We changed too. We started to function as a one-stop-shop – a partner that could deliver a range of wholesale and technological solutions in the area of A2P voice and messaging monetization.
