Mr. Stone commented, "mobile brands are proliferating and mobile use continues to evolve with new devices, 4G, and M2M. I am excited about capitalizing on these trends and helping the right partners to be successful using Viacloud's unparalleled capabilities."

Newly appointed CFO, Richard Schafer has held various senior Finance executive roles at Vodafone UK and 3UK. Mr. Schafer, whose most recent role was as Vodafone UK's Enterprise Finance Executive, commented "the financial proposition to MVNOs cannot just be based on wholesale costs, but needs to also account for the hidden costs of launching, operating and growing a mobile business in a competitive marketplace."
