As a major strategic partner, we have already successfully supplied PTC-Era with GSM base stations and switching equipment since 1996 alongside intelligent network services such as prepaid and WAP technology, said Dr Valentin Chapero Rueda, president of Siemens’ Networks Information and Communication Mobile Group, in a statement to the press.

Now we are looking forward to integrating Siemens’ powerful platform for location based services to help PTC-Era offer attractive new applications to our subscribers and thus extend our leading position in the market, she added.
