Seeker Wireless: Vodafone Innovation Partner of the Year 2008 

Seeker Wireless has been named Innovation Partner of the Year 2008 by Vodafone New Zealand and Vodafone Australia.

The announcement was made at the joint Australia and New Zealand Vodafone Partner Awards - created to recognize excellence in provision of services to Vodafone by its suppliers. Vodafone New Zealand launched their Local Zone product in July, for which Seeker Wireless created the world’s most technically advanced and financially efficient zone detection solution.

Local Zone allows subscribers to use their mobile phone as a fixed line phone when they are in a nominated location, such as their home. Seeker’s innovation was to provide a system (SeekerZone™) that locates the mobile phones accurately and reliably so that calls are rated correctly when they are in their nominated location.

The award was presented by Ken Tunnicliffe, Vodafone New Zealand’s Director of Technology, whose product, marketing and technical teams worked closely with Seeker to ensure that numerous exciting innovations were delivered in a reliable, low-risk framework. Such tight partner collaboration is the key feature of successful innovations.
