 LAUNCH OF SWIPEDON IN TAIWAN, CHINA AND GERMANY

 

Continues international expansion through Asia and Europe

 

SmartSpace Software Plc, (AIM:SMRT) the leading provider of 'Integrated Space
Management Software' for smart buildings and commercial spaces,  is pleased
to announce the successful launch of SwipedOn's SaaS visitor management
platform, in Taiwan, China and Germany.  This follows on from last year's
initial launch in Asia through South Korea.

 

Key highlights to launch in Taiwan, China, and Germany

 

·           Further step in broadening the addressable market with
launch of fully localised language variants in 3 new markets

·           Asian market expansion with localised versions in
Taiwan and China, following on from the release in South Korea last year

·           The launch of a fully localised German version is the
first full market release in Europe

·           Each country variant includes a local language website,
marketing campaign, product and localised sales and customer support.

·           Launching three countries at once demonstrates our
ability to quickly enter new markets with deployment possible in as little as
a few weeks in a cost effective manner.

SwipedOn's existing clients who utilise our platform in over 8,400 locations,
across 70 countries, are predominantly English speaking businesses. This
launch is the next step of an initiative to broaden the addressable market for
SwipedOn, and grow the customer base of non-English speaking clients. Korea,
Taiwan, China and Germany are the first of a number of localised releases
planned.

To support the launch in Taiwan, China and Germany  localised websites
(https://www.swipedon.tw (https://www.swipedon.tw) , https://www.swipedon.cn
(https://www.swipedon.cn) and https://www.swipedon.de
(https://www.swipedon.de) ) are available with a range of local language
marketing and support collateral. In-country digital marketing campaigns will
focus on the search engine dominant to the country.

Commenting on the announcement, Hadleigh Ford, MD of SwipedOn said:

"We were delighted to have successfully launched in Korea in 2022. It
therefore gives me great pleasure to create these new releases of SwipedOn. Up
to now most of our new business came from our core markets of the US, Canada ,
UK, Australia and New Zealand. These new market entries will help us expand
the number of core markets where we generate business on a consistent basis.
This latest step has given us the opportunity to 'stress test' SwipedOn for
geographic expansion. Lessons learnt from these launches will be applied to
other markets with the intention of creating an effective 'cookie cutter'
model for accelerated new market expansion.

 

This milestone continues the very exciting progress and development in the
SwipedOn growth story."
