Baker & McKenzie Acts for Jasper Wireless in Landmark M2M Wireless Roaming Deal

 

Mexico City, Mexico, January 31, 2008 – Baker & McKenzie acted for U.S.-based licensed cellular carrier Jasper Wireless Inc. in obtaining a series of favorable rulings from the Mexican Telecommunications Commission, clarifying the use of the world’s only machine-to-machine (M2M) exclusive wireless data services by Jasper’s roaming users in Mexico.

The Firm also advised Jasper on its landmark M2M data roaming agreement with Telcel, Mexico’s largest wireless telephony network. The deal allows Jasper’s customers worldwide to access M2M services in Mexico.

Partner Sergio Legorreta and associates Valeria Chapa and Fernando Godard represented Jasper Wireless in Mexico.

Baker & McKenzie partner Sergio Legorreta said, “Jasper’s one-of-a-kind business model was a tough one to crack for traditional ways of thought. However, its compelling commercial advantages and solid management structure are leading the path of a new future for machine-to-machine communications in the world, and thankfully, we helped contribute to Mexico becoming a part of this innovation.”
