NetSol Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:NTWK), a global business services and enterprise application solutions provider, today announced it has signed a collaboration agreement to provide technology services to eeGeo, an interactive 3D mapping company based in the United Kingdom. Under the collaboration agreement, NetSol will provide services to eeGeo of approximately $2.8 million over time.

We look forward to working with eeGeo as they continue to grow their business.”
eeGeo currently has mapped the U.S., Britain, Canada and Japan, and a host of iconic cities around the world, and has helped clients within the facilities management, travel, tourism, local media and advertising sectors successfully launch applications to better visualize data, increase engagement with customers and differentiate brands.
“Our two companies share similar values of developing transformative technologies in our respective industries,” said Ian Hetherington, CEO of eeGeo. “Partnering with NetSol allows us to leverage their pool of highly skilled technology professionals, as we execute on our growth objectives to becoming a global leader in interior 3D mapping technologies.”
