The two companies intend to share their expertise and approach customers jointly, while collaborating in other mutual areas of interest and activity. “Despite the fact that BillRun is based in Tel Aviv and Buddy in Seattle, Washington, and Adelaide, Australia, we can easily bridge the geographic distance and time zone gap and find common ground for a strong, fruitful collaboration,” said Ofer Cohen, CEO and co-founder of BillRun.

“By combining Buddy’s cloud-based data exchange platform and global market presence with BillRun’s ability to satisfy a growing need to monetize IoT applications, we foresee great potential in teaming up to scale and support larger customers in the future,” said Cohen.

Together, the two groups will define the future of IoT by offering cost-effective, customizable data-processing tools that interface seamlessly with sensors and devices, and with commonly used software.
