hSenid Devspace, “the Way to go global,” is an international mobile application development partner programme to help local software developers to create and market mobile apps for international markets.

The programme was launched at an event held recently amongst a gathering of members from hSenid’s Developer Community who have established themselves by developing sought after and unique mobile apps on hSenid’s Cloud TAP (Cloud Telco Application Platform) deployed in Sri Lanka.

The event was also attended by budding software developers and software development companies in Sri Lanka.

The programme now offers developers more international market opportunities to create and deploy apps on a larger scale with more telecom-mobile service channels to exploit from the traditional SMS to apps on USSD, IVR, WAP, etc. These could be markets in Africa, Asia, Middle East, Latin America, etc. It’s a promise that hSenid is keeping up with which it made a year-and-a-half ago when it started its mobile application developer community initiatives in Sri Lanka. The DevSpace programme is also being planned to be held in international markets.

A mobile app developer can be recruited to the programme by having tried and tested apps fulfilling certain criteria or go through the hSenid DevSpace certification process. They could initiate the process by contacting the hSenid DevSpace team on [email protected].

The first group of DevSpace Partners was recruited at the above event selected from the Developer community based on their performance on the existing deployments on Cloud TAP. These partners then have the opportunity to progress up the DevSpace ladder with the progressive success of their apps to becoming Silver, Gold and Platinum partners.

The benefits of becoming DevSpace partners are very attractive in terms of incremental benefits a partner receives while progressing up the ladder pertaining to revenue generated for the apps, recognition, endorsements, certifications and exposure as well as an international platform for them to work with and deploy apps in giant mobile operator markets by being based in their local countries.

hSenid Mobile Founder/CEO Dinesh Saparamadu speaking at the launch said: “This is an opportunity for our developers to showcase their development talent, skills and business acumen in international markets and enhance their entrepreneurial skills. hSenid Mobile’s Cloud TAP provides a unique platform to develop mobile apps easily based on operator’s network services such as SMS, USSD which traditionally was a tedious task but now a reality as evident in Sri Lanka and we are today taking it one step further by providing international markets for our developers for these apps to be marketed.”
