"RedOxygen has opened an American office in Denver to service the fast growing North American mobile messaging market." RedOxygen announced today that it has opened a North American office, located in Denver, Colorado. This new office follows RedOxygen's increased presence in Europe and positions the Australian based desktop-to-mobile messaging company to be a significant player in the fast growing US and Canadian mobile messaging markets. RedOxygen, a global leader in desktop-to-mobile messaging software and platforms with offices in Sydney, Brisbane and Barcelona, Spain, views the North American market as an important region for future messaging growth. With established customers and distribution channels in place in Europe, Asia and the Middle East, RedOxygen is looking to North America as an important region for its future.According to RedOxygen CEO Tom Sheahan, the US and Canadian markets represent a tremendous opportunity. "The US and Canada are both making rapid, significant progress in catching up to Europe, Asia and Australia in the field of mobile messaging" says Sheahan. "SMS is generating a lot of buzz in the media and the carriers are pushing their messaging products hard. We anticipate that SMS volumes are going to really take off in North America in the next twelve months." RedOxygen's suite of desktop to mobile messaging software products allows users to leverage SMS messaging technology in innovate and effective new ways through seamless integration of SMS capability into Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, Office XP and Office 2003. Australian based RedOxygen's software is changing the way businesses use SMS technology, a topic of interest and importance to the mobile operators, application developers and other industry leaders attending the Microsoft in Wireless conference. "In addition to fast growing messaging volumes, the real opportunity in North America is to accelerate the uptake of SMS as a business tool", comments Sheahan. "In other, more advanced markets, it took a number of years for SMS to gain acceptance as a viable form of business communication. That is happening now, aided by practical, secure and cost effective tools like RedOxygen's. We believe that North America can learn from the experience of Europe and Asia and that they will jump into business usage with both feet once they get their remaining service and ubiquity issues resolved. We are excited that we now have a US presence to help speed that process and give us an early advantage in the market."
