BeeIN, a Slovenian-based Network Operator, focused on the digitization of Industry Verticals like Electric Energy, Logistics and Manufacturing, has purchased frequencies in the 700 MHz radio frequency band at a public auction to support business-critical machine-to-machine (M2M) communications, announced the Company on Tuesday.
As part of the public tender, BeeIN will have to build a network spanning at least 75% of the territory of the Republic of Slovenia for users of business-critical communications that require high network reliability.
The advent of M2M communication and fifth generation (5G) networks has the potential to transform the Slovenian telecommunications landscape. This latest acquisition is crucial for BeeIN’s continued growth, an operator that understands the rules, regulations and legal implications of critical information and communication technology (ICT) infrastructure and recognizes the complexities and needs of industry verticals on its path to digitalization.
BeeIN CEO Damir Opsenica
After months of diligent preparations, this acquisition allows our growing company to kick into next gear, and intensely engage with customers and stakeholders to accelerate the digitization of the Slovenian industry in general, with a particular focus on electric power, logistics and smart campuses.
BeeIN Sales Director Kristijan Melinc
Stakeholders of the Slovenian critical infrastructure understand the importance of business-critical connectivity in their respective fields. In the past, they were forced to build and operate their own private telecommunications networks, and now they have the opportunity to optimize their operations with various BeeIN services.
