Tim Williams business ambitions

Cellhire Chairman and Founder Tim Williams said “Tony’s extensive experience in the telecoms industry and his knowledge in the IoT space perfectly align with our business ambitions.”

Said Guerion: “Cellhire has developed a powerful IoT proposition, powered by its MVNO on Orange France. The significance of IoT devices in 2024 is greater than ever before. However, their effectiveness is entirely dependent on consistent connectivity. Cellhire’s IoT connectivity solutions provided resilience and cost-effectiveness”
