Q: Can you provide more details on the Norlis deal and its significance for Radcom's geographic market expansion? A: The Norlis deal is significant as it introduces Radcom to the European market and aligns with our target customer profile.

A: We aim to maintain the same level of growth and profitability while investing in R&D to introduce new capabilities with GAI and other partners. Our goal is to keep the same level of profitability on the operational side while continuing to invest in R&D. (Benny Epstein, CEO)

Q: Are there any plans for acquisitions, and what market segments are you interested in? A: We are exploring different options for acquisitions but are not in a hurry. We are carefully evaluating opportunities to expand our addressable market in areas close to our current operations. Once we find the right candidate, we will pursue acquisitions. (Benny Epstein, CEO)

Q: What is your initial focus for driving continued growth at Radcom? A: Our focus is on introducing partners and leveraging big companies like ServiceNow to expand our market reach.
