Valimo launches new Solution Partnership Program with digital signing specialist BizNet as the first member
The solution partner program accelerates the adoption of mobile signatures.

Valimo Wireless, the leading mobile signature and identity solution vendor has launched its solution partner program and announces its first partner. The solution partner program accelerates the adoption of mobile signatures by offering mobile operators a wide selection of end-user applications that leverage Valimo’s infrastructure. The program is aimed at software document management, online and mobile banking, eCommerce and mCommerce. The possibilities are unlimited as mobile signatures allow people to legally sign what could not be signed before, anytime, and anywhere.

Cooperation will create a network of companies operating in the mobile signature ecosystem. It will also strengthen the position of our mobile operator customers who can add tried and tested mobile signature solutions to their end-user offering.

"Valimo invites all interested companies active in mobile and data security solutions to join our solution partner program. Together with partners who integrate their existing security solutions with our Mobile Signature Service components we will create a whole new market opportunity." explains Antti Vihavainen, SVP Business Development at Valimo Wireless. "These complementary solutions will meet the increased demand for easy-to-use applications using mobile signatures for added security. We are especially happy to welcome BizNet as the first company to join the solution partner program."

BizNet’s SignArt solution enables mobile signatures of electronic documents. These are integrated into internet based corporate and customer services, enterprise intranets and office applications, such as signing email and electronic contracts.

"BizNet has been developing solutions for the mobile signature market in Turkey for the past couple of years and has worked closely with Valimo Wireless." said Ms. Nese Sayari, CEO of BizNet. "We are excited to join the program and to have access to Valimo's mobile signature development tools and platforms to develop top-notch solutions, which will become an integrated offer for both companies. BizNet is looking forward to working in the program to fully utilize the benefits and to extend our reach to new markets through technical and marketing cooperation."

Valimo’s Solution Partners benefit from sales and marketing as well as technical support for solution integration.
