Integration (EAI) solutions at the 3GSM World Congress 2002 beginning today in
Cannes, France. TIBCO and its partners, Kabira(TM) Technologies, Inc.,
Mobileum, Inc. and Soprano Design, will present the demonstrations throughout
the show, Tuesday, February 19 to Friday, February 22, at the Palais des
Congress in hospitality suite #0121, Hall 2. Exhibiting a customized

The 3GSM World Congress is the largest gathering place for the 3GSM
industry and provides an exhibition of products and services from over
500 companies. During the show, TIBCO will highlight how they, in
collaboration with leading telecom Independent Software Vendors (ISVs),
uniquely solve the business problems in today's communications market by
providing real-time, distributed solutions that enable telecom and service
providers to move quickly into new markets, enhance business processes and
increase customer satisfaction. TIBCO provides the enabling infrastructure
required to deploy and manage traditional and IP broadband services utilizing
various access methods that include DSL, wireless and cable.
TIBCO is the leading provider of flexible, scalable infrastructure
technology to communications and media companies. To deliver this technology
to the market quickly and cost-effectively, TIBCO partners with leading
telecom ISVs, like Kabira, Mobileum and Soprano Design, to ensure that
products come to market already TIBCO-enabled.
"New service delivery is critical to competitive advantage online," said
Paul Sutton, president and CEO for Kabira Technologies Inc. "TIBCO's products
provide an excellent foundation for the wireless delivery of advanced
e-business services because of its well established ability to integrate
internal and external systems, automate business processes and scale to keep
up with explosive growth in online content."
"Killer applications for wireless require instant access to integrated
corporate data," said Rich Grohol, Vice President and General Manager, EMEA
for Mobileum. "Our partnership with TIBCO combines a world-class business
integration infrastructure with a high performance, modular mobile delivery
platform, enabling the delivery of integrated data access through wireless
channels, to seamlessly extend portal services to enterprises and service
providers."
"In the wireless industry, the successful companies will be those that can
connect real-time, user-specific information to meet the needs of their
customers," said Richard Favero, CEO for Soprano Design. "We have embedded
TIBCO Software's infrastructure in our products for the last four years. This
allows us to focus on developing high value applications for carriers like
Telstra and Optus."
The wireless communications industry is evolving from voice-focused to
data-focused networks. For incumbent companies, the shift to data-oriented
networks presents huge infrastructure challenges, but opens up new revenue
streams in the content and applications carried over those networks. TIBCO
solutions build the foundation for integration of these new revenue-generating
applications, providing the backend connectivity and seamless integration of
disparate systems, enabling applications to communicate with one another and
disseminate information, on a real-time basis, throughout the enterprise. By
leveraging integrated, real-time, active information delivery systems,
corporations enable swift, creative responses across the enterprise.
"It is becoming increasingly cost effective to combine best-of-breed
solutions from a combination of vendors in order to build a complete wireless
solution," said Erik Hansen, president EMEA for TIBCO Software. "Kabira,
Mobileum and Soprano Design are key players in the highly competitive wireless
environment and their commitment to TIBCO supports our position as the leading
provider of business infrastructure software to the communications and media
industry."
