Helsinki 13.12.2006 - Valimo Wireless, the leading provider of mobile phone-based authentication and digital signature verification products received HP Partner of the Year Award. The award was handed to CEO Will Cardwell in Vienna at the HP Communication World Event on Tuesday night.

Valimo´s mobile authentication services are ported to HP Integrity NonStop servers. Valimo´s solution leverages a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) running on HP Integrity NonStop servers. The outcome is a robust IT infrastructure that has got the availability and scalability to support the performance requirements of mobile operator signature services, regardless of user volumes or time of day.

The HP Partner of the Year awards recognise partners working with HP across a number of business units that have excelled at reaching business goals and that have made an impact on local or regional markets through developing strong relationships with both HP and customers. The award also commends partners for achieving major project breakthroughs, outstanding order volumes and development of joint solutions.

”HP has been one of Valimo's key partners since 2003, and the partnership has been growing in importance all the time. The HP Partner of the Year Award is very significant to us. The key is that we can deliver at the highest levels of availability and scalability for our customers, and we have full access to HP's global resources when necessary to deliver and support customers. We continue to add new joint accounts all the time," says CEO Will Cardwell from Valimo.

Valimo Wireless is the leading provider of mobile phone-based authentication and digital signature verification products in the EMEA region. Valimo’s solutions enable the creation of mobile phone digital signatures - only a SIM card and any GSM mobile phone are necessary. This ‘mobile signature’ is the equivalent of a conventional, legally binding signature on a paper contract or the equivalent of showing a driver’s license or passport as identification.

Mobile phones can be easily used to authenticate access to corporate resources, Internet banks, and other web-based services. In addition, the Valimo solution can be used to verify e-commerce transactions. Valimo’s mobile signature products are currently in use in Finland, Sweden, Poland, Slovenia, Lithuania, and Kuwait.
