Preiskel & Co have advised 1GLOBAL, global connectivity specialist, on an exclusive multi-year partnership with Monzo, introducing the company into the UK telecoms market with the launch of Monzo Mobile.
1GLOBAL will manage international roaming and global network integration across more than 200 destinations. The partnership also includes Virgin Media O2, which will provide infrastructure and 5G connectivity.
Powered by 1GLOBAL and Virgin Media O2, Monzo Mobile will offer a single eSIM with both domestic and international connectivity, without the complexity of building a full-fledged telecoms infrastructure.
1GLOBAL stated the deal reflects growing demand for embedded connectivity services among digital-first consumer brands.
The transaction reflects Preiskel & Co’s long-standing telecoms practice, which advises operators, MVNOs, connectivity providers and technology companies on telecommunications regulation, spectrum, network access, roaming, consumer protection and commercial arrangements in the UK and internationally.
