e*Message operates nationwide mobile networks in France and Germany. We develop and sell services that include diverse mobile and non-mobile communication channels. We are providers of critical communication solutions for the areas of alarming, warning, control, content distribution and dispatching. Our users come from the areas of energy and new energy, public safety, logistics, public transport, content distribution, industry, health and many others. We operate data Transport as a Service (TaaS) solutions, providing our customers with communication services whatever the place, whatever the circumstances.
There is no other mobile operator that serves our two countries at the same time. We build on partnerships with a variety of manufacturers. Both in hardware and in software. We complement our services with other mobile services. We embed hardware and services into our global solutions, providing our customers with a ready to use service and everything for critical communications. This is needed in critical cases, in emergencies, for business continuity and excellent economical parameters. Often used for protecting against cellular network outages or blackouts as a first and second wireless countrywide infrastructure service.
That is why we are happy to be able to further develop our services for our thousands of customers in exchange with colleagues from this specialised branch of mobile communications. We are happy to bring our experience and results in paging (e.g. POCSAG), narrowband point to multipoint (NP2M by ETSI and CEPT) and multichannel (including cellular, LTE, IoT, 5G) solutions to the CMA Association which provides a win-win situation.

Why CMA
The challenges in our faster developing society around the world are becoming more and more complex. In addition and partly because of this, critical situations arise. Situations in which secure communication is particularly important. It’s not a question of fashion. It is a question of the fact that the message, the alarm, the warning arrives even in problematic environments. Whenever possible. To rely on just one mobile technology that is convenient for everyone would be insane. Our members are happy to be able to offer secure mobile communications in many or all corners of our beautiful planet. As a primary or second infrastructure service. You do this with paging, with NP2M, with all available wireless technologies. The offers of the CMA association are indispensable and are constantly being developed. Therefore everyone who is close to these topics is also invited to contribute and contribute.
