POCSTARS to Participate in GCF & TCCA Mission Critical Services Workshop
POCSTARS CEO Louis Rong expresses commitment to further investment in technology R&D, exploring advanced innovations to expand the company’s MCS-focused product lines.
POCSTARS, a global leader in Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) solutions, announced its participation in the upcoming Mission Critical Services (MCS/MCX) workshop co-hosted by the TCCA and Global Certification Forum (GCF) in Budapest on October 30-31.
As a committed advocate for 3GPP open standards, POCSTARS develops and promotes interoperable, scalable PoC and MCS systems tailored to meet the unique needs of various industries.
The global MCS market, encompassing Mission Critical Communication (MCC) systems, is experiencing rapid growth. In 2024, the market is valued at approximately $19.82 billion and is projected to reach $28.55 billion by 2028, with a CAGR of 9.6%. This expansion is driven by rising demand for reliable communication solutions in sectors like public safety, transportation, and other essential industries, supported by technological advancements in 5G and AI.
With the recent launch of the GCF certification program earlier this year, organizations procuring mission-critical broadband solutions can now specify GCF certification in their procurement processes, ensuring compliance with 3GPP standards. This initiative, led by TCCA and GCF, is expected to drive the global adoption of MCS solutions by providing a trusted benchmark for product quality and interoperability.
POCSTARS' R&D focuses on three core objectives: first, to develop internationally standardized products that meet the diverse networking requirements of mission-critical environments; second, to offer competitive solutions based on 3GPP standards, supporting legacy system upgrades and multiple integrations; and third, to create cost-effective solutions that leverage the advantages of international collaborations and supply chain efficiencies.
Prior to the official launch of its MCS solutions, POCSTARS has been actively conducting trials in Europe, receiving positive feedback from early adopters. Rigorous testing has confirmed the compatibility of POCSTARS' products with European market standards, laying a solid foundation for full-scale commercial deployment.
Looking ahead, POCSTARS CEO Louis Rong expressed a commitment to further investment in technology R&D, exploring advanced innovations to expand the company’s MCS-focused product lines. The company plans to use its European tour and product launch as an opportunity to expand its global footprint, foster partnerships, and raise brand visibility.
By participating in industry events like the GCF & TCCA MCS workshop, POCSTARS reaffirms its dedication to collaboration, technological progress, and building a robust ecosystem for the communications sector. This participation marks a significant step in POCSTARS' global strategy, embodying the company’s ethos of innovation, partnership, and shared success.
