SAN MATEO, CA, Apr 29 (MARKET WIRE) --
Kabira Technologies, Inc., a leader in extreme transaction processing
software for global enterprises, and developer of the highly-regarded
Kabira Provisioning and Service Activation(TM) (KPSA) solution, today
announced that the company has become an official sponsor of GSMA Latin

World) that addresses the needs of operators in the Latin America region.
GSMA LA works with operators and industry suppliers to drive the progress
of communication, activities and events to further the advancement of
mobile communications throughout the region.
Marcelo Erhlich, GSMA LA chairman, said, "With the success of the GSM
standard worldwide and its constant evolution, it has become increasingly
important to develop an association through which operators across Latin
America can obtain timely and consistent information and support. GSMA
Latin America has assumed this valuable role, providing operators access
to seminars, publications, technical support and a vehicle through which
members can contact regulatory entities and ministries within their
regions -- as well as interface with key suppliers. We are thrilled to
have Kabira Technologies join us as an official sponsor to help us
continue our very important mission."
Dirk Epperson, co-founder and global vice president of marketing and
strategy for Kabira Technologies, stated, "With over 75 GSM operators and
380 million mobile users in Latin America and the Caribbean, we believe
the Latin America region is a vital part of the global mobile
communications landscape. Kabira's recent announcement of our expansion
of efforts in Latin America speaks to how important we feel this market
is, and our sponsorship of GSMA LA is evidence that we take our
commitment seriously."
GSMA LA works with industry suppliers who contribute to mobile industry
activities and working groups. Official sponsors of GSMA LA also
participate in these events and contribute to the GSMA LA Vision Magazine
annual publication. Kabira plans to lend its significant field-proven
experience and product knowledge to those efforts.
Epperson added, "Kabira's solutions manage over 700 million telecom
subscribers and service over 15 billion card payments worldwide. Our
service-aware solutions provide the infrastructure capabilities required
by real-time business-critical processes to respond to marketing and
technical challenges faced by mobile operators. This gives operators the
ability to create, activate, charge and transact convergent services in
real-time."
The company delivers its key telecommunications products around the world,
featuring its widely-deployed KPSA platform, Kabira Charging(TM) software
and the Kabira Mobile Transaction Hub(TM) software (KMTH). Kabira's
