Karrier One and Iridium Announce Partnership to Extend Global IoT Connectivity to the Most Remote Locations on Earth
This partnership will allow Karrier One deployers to connect sensors, devices, and critical monitoring equipment anywhere on the planet — including regions far beyond the reach of terrestrial mobile networks — without the need to install or operate a local base station.
“With Iridium’s constellation, we’re extending the Karrier One footprint from remote communities into the world’s most inaccessible locations,” said Samer Bishay, CEO of Karrier One. “From environmental monitoring in the Arctic to asset tracking in the middle of the ocean, deployers can now build IoT solutions without worrying about terrestrial coverage gaps.”
By combining Karrier One’s decentralized network model with Iridium’s low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellites, the partnership enables:
- Instant Global Reach – Narrowband IoT devices can connect anywhere on land, sea, or air.
- Zero Infrastructure Deployment – Deployers can focus on sensors and applications, not building towers.
- Resilient M2M Communications – Ideal for mission-critical use cases such as maritime tracking, oil & gas monitoring, and environmental sensing.
- Seamless Network Integration – Iridium connectivity will be natively accessible through the Karrier One platform and APIs.
While Karrier One has historically focused on enabling deployers to set up local cellular infrastructure, this collaboration unlocks a new category of deployment — where the “last mile” can be hundreds of miles from the nearest cell tower.
“Iridium’s unique satellite architecture provides reliable pole-to-pole coverage that users can count on, making it the perfect fit for Karrier One’s mission to connect the unconnected,” said Tim Last, executive vice president of sales and marketing at Iridium. “Together, we can help empower innovators to deploy IoT solutions anywhere on earth, with no compromise on reliability or reach.”
The partnership reflects a shared vision: a world where connectivity is no longer defined by geography. The MOU will be followed by a bilateral agreement outlining technical integration and commercial rollout.
