Acquisition of Thingstream MQTT Anywhere Platform
u-blox accelerates IoT Sphere service business
u-blox announced on the 6th that it has acquired Thingstream, an IoT Communication-as-a-Service (CaaS) company. u-blox paid 10 million Swiss francs (CHF) for the acquisition, along with additional compensation for employee retention.

MQTT (Message queuing telemetry transport) is a data transmission protocol widely used in the IoT field, in which one source device (publisher) transmits a message to one or more other sink devices (subscribers) through an intermediate intermediary (broker). To enhance the reliability of M2M (Machine-to-machine) communication, users can set QoS (Quality of service) according to the special requirements of the application.
Thingstream's 'MQTT Anywhere' service transmits MQTT-SN messages over 2G/3G/LTE/LTE-M networks, enabling carriers to offer data transmission services to over 600 carriers in 190 countries worldwide without having to modify their cellular data architecture.
“The acquisition of Thingstream and its platform will enable u-blox to accelerate its IoT Sphere business,” said Thomas Seiler, CEO of u-blox. “IoT Sphere will provide our customers with a reliable, intelligent, and secure solution to connect sensor data to their cloud enterprises.”
