OUR STORY
Link One Technology Consultants Ltd. started in 2011 as a telecom consultancy company registered in the UAE (United Arab Emirates) and specialized in submarine and terrestrial transmission systems. With its local knowledge and exposure to general technology markets of the Arabian Gulf, Link 1, in cooperation with its partners offers a broad range of services related to the telecom industry as whole.
OUR VISION
Link One has evolved from the telecom consultancy company to a tech business facilitator with much broader reach than initially anticipated. Our partners are located in North America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Middle East. Our Vision is to help technology companies conquer new territories and expand their business in the way they have never thought was possible.
OUR STRATEGY
The first step in every new venture of Link One is to learn as much as possible about the business of the new partner and the needs and possible challenges the company is facing. The second step is to introduce possible opportunities and solutions, including financing, product distribution ideas, possible partnerships, public relations or even legal support in the new markets etc. Step three would be to form a support framework.
