What Telenity does
Telenity is a privately held, founder-controlled telecom software vendor that builds cloud-native, NFV/5G-ready platforms for communication service providers (CSPs) and mobile operators globally. Founded in 2001 by the same team that previously built and exited NewNet (acquired by ADC Telecommunications in 1997), the company is headquartered in Istanbul, Turkey with US presence in Monroe, Connecticut and a regional operation in India. The company markets two core platforms: the Canvas Service Consolidation Platform (formerly VAS Consolidation Platform), which unifies legacy and next-generation messaging and voice services (SMSC, MMSC, USSD, USSI, IPSM Gateway, Ring Back Tone, Bulk Messaging, Call Completion Suite, SMS Anti-spam, Roamers Welcome, SMSF for 5G) on a microservices / Kubernetes architecture; and the Nexcera Service Monetization Platform (rebranded September 2025 from DSP), which handles partner management, direct carrier billing, digital storefront, consent, and AI-powered revenue acceleration across the partner ecosystem. Telenity also runs Enkudo as a digital services aggregation sub-brand under a revenue-share model.
The company monetizes through multi-year enterprise software licensing (on-premise and Telco Cloud / SaaS delivery via AWS, Red Hat, HP/HPE), professional services for implementation and integration, and managed services (NOC monitoring, L1/L2 operations, DevOps). Direct enterprise field sales targeting telecom operators is supplemented by strategic regional channel partners (Emircom for GCC, TelcoVas). Telenity's customer base spans more than 40 operators across MENA, Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Africa — including Vodafone Türkiye, Ooredoo Qatar, Ooredoo Algeria, Azercell, Smartfren (Indonesia), Turkcell, Türk Telekom, Mobily, Jawwal, Vodafone Ghana, Airtel, Idea Cellular, Zain Nigeria, and lifecell — with reference deployments handling 18M+ subscribers and billions of monthly SMS messages.
The India operation extends the platform into SIM-based location tracking (Smart Probe API, Smart Express Fleet, Smart Zone Field Force Tracking) serving enterprise fleet/logistics customers. Technology partnerships with Intel (Winners' Circle), Red Hat, AWS, Ericsson, Nokia, and Microsoft underpin NFV and cloud delivery; commercial partnerships with Google, Apple, Huawei, and Amazon power direct carrier billing. Recognition includes the 2017 Global Telecoms Business Award, 2021 Intel Network Builders Gold, 2024 Gartner Hype Cycle inclusion, and 2023 E-Turquality status from the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Trade. The company is privately held with no disclosed external funding; three co-founders remain in active executive and board roles.
