23. Securitas & Verisure UK
Securitas, global company with 300,000 employees in 53 countries worldwide.
Have a stake in Sigfox Spain and have bought 1m subscriptions there.
Absolutely delighted with the anti jamming capabilities of Sigfox.
So, completely “bought in” as a group.
Verisure UK, are the smart alarms division here.
We have a great relationship with them, and they are ready, and indeed, “chomping at the bit”, to add Sigfox anti jamming
into their alarms in the UK.
As soon as we have sufficient countrywide coverage, this will be actioned.
Obviously, has to be extremely robust and verified coverage, as it’s for alarm systems.
Hence the delay, whilst we build the network.
Currently involved in joint marketing initiatives with Verisure and WNDUK, to all police forces
across the UK, to create awareness.
Verisure have 23 regional offices and approx. 30,000 current customers, with plans to increase rapidly.
