Everything in Harmony
Born from two leading multinationals, Vodafone and Sumitomo, Pairpoint enables devices to act as ´economic agents’: connecting, transacting and communicating in a profoundly new and valuable way.
By 2025 there will be 26 billion ‘connected’ devices, but many of these are limited by technical domains or ecosystems they exist within. Through our patented combination of SIM and Blockchain technology, every enabled device can interact with any enabled device in a way that balances security and flexibility.
We are a team of analysts, technologists and optimists, changing the relationship between hardware, businesses and users. We breathe life into existing and new devices and create new sources of value for everyone.
