America

2nd December 2011 - ROK Global PLC, the mobile and web technology
development company, has today announced, following the existing successful
deployments and on-going trials of its ROK Homeland Security (RHS) service
with several US law enforcement agencies, that it has opened an office in
Austin, Texas, to focus entirely on the future development and deployment
of RHS technologies across the United States.
Commenting, Jonathan Kendrick, Chairman and CEO of ROK said 'Given the
success of RHS to date and the pipeline of sales we are expecting, we have
decided now is the time to split our US operations into two offices whereby
we will retain our office in Los Angeles to manage all other aspects of
ROK's business in the US and focus our development of our RHS business from
our new office in Austin.'
ROK Homeland Security in the US is headed by military, Homeland Security
and law enforcement veteran, Blake Sawyer.
RHS, developed by ROK, is a unique mobile phone-based security asset
service which provides real-time, secure technologies to assist law
enforcement officers in the gathering and management of information in a
variety of formats including encrypted data-based communications and
improved spatial awareness capabilities.
RHS has been specifically designed for use in counter-terrorism operations,
criminal investigations, counter-narcotic operations, physical security,
evidence-gathering and field communications.
Listed on the Open Market of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, ROK Global PLC
was co-founded by US Billionaire John Paul DeJoria and UK-based serial
technology-specialist entrepreneur, Jonathan Kendrick.
In addition to being co-founder of ROK, John Paul DeJoria is Chairman and
CEO of John Paul Mitchell Systems, the producer and manufacturer of Paul
Mitchell hair care products and is also co-founder of Patron Tequila, the
world's leading premium tequila brand.
In addition to RHS, ROK has pioneered many new and innovative technologies
in the rapidly-evolving mobile and web space, including high quality
mass-market Mobile TV (which can be streamed, live and on-demand, over
mass-market 2.5G as well as 3G and Wi-Fi) as well as multi-language
text-to-speech technologies and innovative online e-commerce solutions.
