Oktacom Inc. Is Granted the 214 International Telecommunication License
Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – March 17, 2022) – Upco International Inc. (CSE: UPCO) (OTC Pink: UCCPF) (FSE: U06) (“Upco” or the “Company”) announces that Oktacom Inc. – a telecommunications company and subsidiary of UPCO – has been granted the 214 International Telecommunication License regulated in the United States of America.
This license, from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), represents a substantial opportunity for Oktacom and its shareholders. It allows the company to provide telecommunication services between the US and other countries and fosters growth by allowing it to provide services directly rather than through third party providers. More specifically, it enables Oktacom as follows:
- To become a facilities-based international common carrier subject to 47 CFR §§ 63.21, 63.22.
- To become a resale-based international common carries subject to 47 CFR §§ 63.21, 63.23.
- To assign or transfer control of international Section 214 authority in accordance with 47 CFR §§ 63.24.
- To exceed the foreign benchmarks applicable to common carrier radio licensees under 47 U.S.C. § 310.
This framework ensures that the U.S. market is protected against potential anti-competitive behavior by a carrier with market power in a foreign country. It also allows private line, switched long distance, prepaid services and calling card services.
In other developments, and consistent with its marketing and business strategy, Oktacom’s management is entering into a second phase of expansion with a new target identified in the Balkans, which offers aligned services: voice business, telecommunications carriers and traffic termination. In coming weeks, Oktacom will send a letter of intent to make an official offer to acquire this company.
Successful closure of this deal will provide the group with a strong presence in this region, which will expand reach and bolster its revenue stream. Oktacom Inc. is also studying the market to offer Fiber Optik, Mobile Virtual Network Operator and Internet of Things services.
