The concept of the Nonvoice agency is completely unique. It is supported by a team of freelance agents who are predominately able to facilitate their role with Nonvoice with their existing employment. That gives the team a lot of flexibility as well as use the Nonvoice network of apps and operator relationships to assist with what is required in each of their regions. Local knowledge is power and Nonvoice is committed to eventually having a representative in each country worldwide.

“Launching something as unique and innovative as the Nonvoice agency was daunting. I knew from my own experience of the industry that there was a need for someone to step to help 5G app developers be successful and for telecommunications operators to have access to the right apps to easily add to their platforms. The test was whether others would welcome our input. I could not be happier with the agency’s success so far and to my peers who have joined from all corners of the globe who have signed up as agents,” commented: Simon Buckingham, Nonvoice Founder and CEO.
“Just like Simon I am an entrepreneur and recognise a good innovative opportunity when I see it. I know that other agents have mentioned it before, but the concept is so obvious that I am not sure why it hasn’t been done before. However, I am pleased to be part of the first 5G apps agency and to helping developers in both my home region of Canada as well as in Africa where I have been successful with some of my own start-up ventures,” added Nicolas Bussard, Nonvoice Agent.
