Europolitan to sell network capacity to mobile operator Mobyson Europolitan and mobile operator Mobyson, which specifically targets young people, have signed a long-term service provisioning agreement, whereby Mobyson will buy capacity in Europolitan's GSM network and offer mobile subscriptions and services under its own brand. Mobyson's target group is Europe's younger generation between the ages of 17 and 32 and the company's service offering has a strong emphasis on entertainment and gaming. "Not only will the agreement with Mobyson boost our revenues, it will also increase the return on our investments in infrastructure and systems. In addition, it will enable us to join Mobyson in reaching the younger generation of mobile users who form one of the driving forces behind the development of tomorrow's mobile services," says Anders Sjöholm, Business Area Manager at Europolitan's Network Business.

We complement each other on the market and Europolitan's 3G licence, together with its generally recognised high network quality standards, now allows us to offer our customers exciting new mobile solutions in Sweden as well," says Jonas Kjellberg, Managing Director of Mobyson.
