Two acquisitions, new major projects and significant operational milestones mark an expanded global presence

LONDON, June 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today Boldyn Networks (Boldyn) celebrates its one-year anniversary as a new brand, bringing together industry-leading companies that have set the bar for advanced neutral host technologies around the world. By designing, building, operating, and funding shared communications infrastructure across key cities, venues, and businesses, Boldyn is transforming how people live, work and play – connecting over a billion people.

The shared communications powerhouse is shaping the industry with an unprecedented portfolio of neutral host solutions, supported by a team of bold and highly skilled experts, and years of experience in the public and private sectors.

During its inaugural year, Boldyn is on track to achieve its ambition of becoming the world’s largest neutral host provider through strong organic growth and the additional acquisitions of Edzcom, Cellnex’s private networks business unit in Europe, and Apogee Telecom in the US, the leading provider of on-campus connectivity infrastructure in the US higher education sector.

“We have a compelling vision for an interconnected future. Our Boldyn Networks name represents our drive to be innovative, bold, and dynamic. I’m thrilled to say that after a year, we’re achieving exactly that—partnering with our customers to deliver cutting-edge connectivity solutions that address tomorrow’s most significant challenges,” said Igor Leprince, Group CEO of Boldyn Networks. “Our neutral host approach will help move communities forward and make inclusive network access the status quo. I’m looking forward to the next 12 months as we continue to deliver the advanced shared network infrastructure that will shape a smart, inclusive, and sustainable future.”

Leprince added: “During our first year we picked up multiple industry awards for our business acquisitions and integration. We have expanded even further, with our growth into private networks in Europe and US higher education. I’m extremely proud of the work our team does – from enabling interconnected transport to connecting venues and creating smart cities across the world.”

Sarah Roberts, Group Chief Marketing Officer of Boldyn Networks, said: “I’m especially proud of our people who rallied behind our bold new brand. Their creative thinking, hard work, and dedication are why we have established ourselves among the biggest neutral host providers in the world. Boldyn’s impact isn’t measured in deployments or sites, it’s engraved in human stories. From building Rome’s digital future to connecting every corner of New York and enabling military families or students in large smart campuses with powerful networks. This is what we celebrate today and what our brand represents. Boldyn Networks doesn’t just talk about the future. It exists to help build it. By moving the industry forward through shared infrastructure and deep collaboration.” 

Connecting over a billion people all over the world, one project at a time

Boldyn is realising its purpose of unlocking the power of an interconnected future, for millions of people on three continents, through significant projects over the last 12 months:

United Kingdom and Ireland: bringing high-speed mobile and fibre connectivity to more places than ever before

Boldyn is building a new digital infrastructure for London in partnership with Transport for London and the mobile operators Three, EE, Vodafone, and Virgin Media O2. More than 40 underground stations have high-speed mobile coverage to date, serving millions of passengers every day. Above ground, together with Three and EE, Boldyn has been deploying small cells to increase mobile network capacity in London’s busiest high streets. And across a number of London’s boroughs, Boldyn has brought high-speed fibre connectivity to public buildings and assets such as CCTV. In Sunderland, Boldyn is partnering with the City Council, to create the UK’s most advanced smart city, using OpenRAN to enhance the fan experience at key live sports and e-sports venues across the city through the Sunderland Open Network Ecosystem (SONET) project. Out in the North Sea, the company’s second partnership with Ørsted will see a high-speed mobile network built at Hornsea 3, the world’s largest offshore wind farm, providing power to over 3.3 million UK homes. And in Ireland, Boldyn continues to provide leading manufacturing, technology, and public sector organisations with the enhanced 4G and 5G mobile connectivity required to transform key business processes and public services.

United States: investing billions of dollars in critical infrastructure in entertainment venues, transit, military bases, and commercial real estate

In addition to the Apogee acquisition, which expands its higher education capabilities to hundreds of colleges and universities, Boldyn is transforming connectivity in the US by heavily investing in critical communications infrastructure across the country. In the military sector, Boldyn brought mission-critical, base-wide connectivity to the country’s largest and most active US Army Basic Combat Training installation- Fort Jackson Army base in Columbia, SC – through the installation of a best-in-class wireless network. Boldyn is redefining the fan experience across the US by providing critical connectivity to some of the most important sports and entertainment arenas, such as the Sacramento Kings’ Golden 1 Center. An extension of its partnership with the preeminent venue and live experience company ASM Global will deliver connectivity in hundreds of venues worldwide. In the transit space, Boldyn is partnering with all major carriers to provide wireless connectivity for millions of riders in both San Francisco and NYC. Boldyn has also been selected to deliver next-gen 5G connectivity for all mobile carriers at the rapidly growing Asheville Regional Airport in North Carolina, supporting 1.8 million passengers annually. In the commercial real estate market, Boldyn continued to grow its partnership with prominent real estate firm Sterling Bay, providing connectivity at some of the largest, high-profile commercial and mixed-use developments such as Lincoln Yards and Fulton Market in Chicago.

Continental Europe: leading Rome’s digital renaissance and deploying private networks

In Europe, Boldyn announced an agreement with Roma Capitale, the Italian capital city’s municipality, to implement #Roma5G. This is an ambitious project to help Rome, one of the continent’s most significant historical cities, become one of the most connected, digital and sustainable smart cities in Europe. Boldyn also made major strides in private networks, -where it already has more than 60 deployments, including supporting the Lahti Ski Games with a portable private network. The goal was to deploy advanced connectivity to enable organisers to enhance the experience of visitors to sporting and cultural events, and support Finland’s public service media company, Yle, in covering the games. Boldyn also partnered with WICOAR Technologies, Oulu University Hospital and the University of Oulu in Finland to bring the first-ever private 5G SA network to an operating European hospital.

Asia: empowering smart places with awarded innovation

Boldyn’s Hong Kong team has pioneered a cutting-edge 5G network using the Golden Band to enhance telco capacities. This unique solution, supporting 300MHz bandwidth, is a first in public transport for multi-carrier ENDC tech. Additionally, the team created an Integrated Radio Distribution System for unmanned systems, boosting 5G connectivity for government data centres and smart applications. Boldyn’s 20-year commitment to Hong Kong supports a major transit system with 2 billion annual passengers.

Halal Route Application – Eat, Travel around Thailand, Safe and Sound Halal Style

Published

on

September 20, 2024

By

BANGKOK, Thailand, Sept. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — The Halal Science Center, Chulalongkorn University has developed Halal Route, an application that lists restaurants, lodging, mosques, prayer directions, and tourist attractions in Thailand under Islamic tourism principles. It hopes to help Muslim tourists travel in Thailand with peace of mind, and supports tourism industry operators to grow and welcome a growing number of Muslim tourists.

The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) predicts that in 2024 there will be around 168 million Islamic tourists worldwide.  According to the Mastercard-Crescent Rating Global Muslim Travel Index (GMTI 2024), Thailand is the 32nd most popular destination for Muslim tourists.  However, the major problem Muslim tourists encounter in Thailand is finding Halal-accredited restaurants, hotels, accommodations, or tourist attractions with service areas (such as prayer rooms) that are compliant with the Islamic way.

“Halal Route” is a travel aggregator app that collects searchable information on Halal restaurants, mosques, prayer locations, times, and directions for prayers (the qibla), tourist attractions, Muslim villages or communities, hotels, accommodations, etc.  This app is linked to Google Maps for navigation with precision. It also supports 3 languages, Thai, English, and Arabic, so that Muslim tourists can live and travel more comfortably and with peace of mind,” said Mr.Erfun Weahama, Science Service Officer, Halal Route App development team.

Dr. Anat Denyingyot, Assistant Director of the Halal Science Center, emphasized that the Halal Route application has the most reliable and comprehensive information on halal tourism in Thailand today. “All restaurants and locations have had on-site visits and are audited according to standards approved by a trusted authority or organization, such as certifications from religious organizations or halal food-related entities, as well as management systems to guarantee and be responsible for halal conditions (the HAL-Q system),” Dr. Anat assured.

Currently, the application has more than 1,100 restaurants in its database, and new locations and services are being updated, covering more than 40 provinces from north to south of Thailand that are popular among tourists.

“Halal Route is not only for navigation, but a platform that connects Muslim communities from around the world who have the opportunity to visit Thailand,” Associate Professor Dr.Winai Dahlan, Director of the Halal Science Center concluded.

The Halal Route application is free to download on both iOS and Android systems.

Major Factors Driving the Growth of QR Code Labels Market:

The QR code labels market is experiencing robust growth due to the increasing adoption across sectors like retail, logistics, marketing, and payments. The convenience, versatility, and cost-effectiveness of QR code labels, combined with the rise in mobile phone usage and the shift toward contactless technologies, are key drivers of this growth. Industries are leveraging QR codes for diverse applications such as inventory management, mobile payments, and marketing campaigns. However, concerns about data privacy and security may limit widespread adoption in certain regions.

TRENDS INFLUENCING THE GROWTH OF THE QR CODE LABELS MARKET:

 Flexographic printing holds the largest share in the QR code labels market due to its high-speed production capabilities and cost-effectiveness for large print runs. Flexographic printing is particularly popular in sectors like retail and logistics, where large quantities of QR code labels are required for packaging and inventory management. Its ability to print on a wide range of substrates, including paper, plastic, and metallic foils, makes flexographic printing the preferred choice for high-volume, cost-efficient QR code label production, driving its dominance in the market.

Digital printing is the second-largest segment, known for its flexibility, quick turnaround times, and ability to produce short print runs cost-effectively. This technology is widely adopted in the marketing and advertising sectors where businesses need customized QR code labels for targeted campaigns and promotions. Digital printing offers high-quality, precise printing for small batches, allowing companies to personalize QR codes for specific audiences or events. The growing trend of personalization in marketing is significantly driving the demand for digital printing in the QR code labels market.

Inventory management is the largest application segment, as QR code labels simplify tracking and monitoring products in warehouses, retail stores, and logistics chains. QR codes allow for real-time updates and easy access to product details, making inventory management more efficient. Businesses, especially in e-commerce and logistics, rely on QR codes to reduce human errors, improve accuracy, and streamline operations. As global trade and e-commerce continue to grow, inventory management remains the largest driver of the QR code labels market.

QR codes in marketing and advertising are increasingly popular as brands use them to engage customers directly through digital content. By scanning a QR code, consumers can access websites, videos, promotions, and other interactive media, enhancing brand interaction. This trend is particularly strong in retail and consumer goods sectors, where QR codes are used in packaging, billboards, and digital campaigns. With more consumers using smartphones, QR codes have become a key tool in marketing strategies, driving growth in this application.

The use of QR code labels for mobile payments is rapidly expanding, especially in regions like Asia-Pacific, where cashless transactions are becoming the norm. QR codes provide a secure, contactless payment solution, and their integration with mobile wallets makes them convenient for both consumers and businesses. The pandemic accelerated the shift to contactless payments, and the trend is expected to continue as more businesses adopt QR code-enabled payment systems. This rising trend is a significant factor contributing to the growth of the QR code labels market.

QR code labels are also being increasingly adopted for personal use, particularly in the context of social networking, personal branding, and event management. Individuals are using QR codes to share contact information, social media profiles, or event details. The ease of generating and sharing QR codes through mobile apps has made this technology accessible for personal use. As digital interaction becomes more integrated into daily life, personal use of QR code labels is expected to grow, further expanding the market.

The production of QR code labels, particularly in large quantities, is increasingly being scrutinized for its environmental impact. Companies are looking for sustainable printing solutions, such as eco-friendly inks and biodegradable materials, to reduce the environmental footprint of label production. Flexographic and digital printing technologies are evolving to meet these demands, with manufacturers investing in greener alternatives. The shift towards sustainability in label production is expected to shape the future of the QR code labels market.

North America follows, with increasing adoption in retail, marketing, and healthcare. Europe is also a key market, driven by the rising demand for contactless payment solutions and digital marketing initiatives.
