Exatel hoping to connect to users with WiMax and wireless services
"Lack of access to clients is a disadvantage of Exatel. Due to this we intend to implement WiMax technology as soon as possible," said Witold Czyżewski, Exatels president. The deadline for concluding the project has not yet been revealed, but the testing phase will be carried out by the end of the year. Exatel is still hoping to make money on its Tetra project, which is to be a system of wireless communication for rescue services. "So far the consortium Tetra System Polska, the shareholder of which is Exatel, submitted another offer of roughly $700 million to the Interior Ministry for the construction of the system. We have been waiting for the reply for two months," said Czyżewski. In H1 2005 Exatel posted a net loss of zł.38 million on revenues amounting to zł.240 million. Revenues should double in the second half of the year. (Puls Biznesu, pp. 1, 7; Parkiet, p. 3) M.M.
