Qualcomm eyes European market with Trigenix buy

SAN DIEGO-With a view to bringing CDMA to the mainstream of the European market, Qualcomm Inc. said it has acquired Trigenix, a mobile user interface company, for $36 million.

The U.K. company’s technology will be combined with Qualcomm’s BREW technology to make wireless devices in Europe interface with Qualcomm’s CDMA product offerings.

“Qualcomm’s acquisition of Trigenix marks a significant next step in the company’s efforts to bring enhanced 3G wireless data services to Europe and illustrates our resolve to support wireless operators, device manufacturers and developers on the Continent,” said Peggy Johnson, president of Qualcomm Internet services.
