YourNest Venture Capital investee CRON Systems, an Internet of Things-based border security start-up, said on Monday it has entered into a partnership with Bangladesh-based GETCO Group, its first global foray.

GETCO, an engineering consultancy and services company that provides technology for perimeter security along the Bangladesh border, will provide marketing and channel support for some of CRON’s products that are already being deployed by Indian paramilitary forces.

Through this partnership, CRON will market its customisable perimeter surveillance products to various potential customers including the Bangladesh government, border security forces and other decision-makers.

The New Delhi-based company is currently providing border surveillance systems to paramilitary forces in areas like Jammu & Kashmir, and it products are being tested in other sensitive border areas. Apart from Bangladesh, which has a geographical and ecological terrain similar to India, the start-up is also planning to target markets across Africa and Asia, said Tushar Chhabra, co-founder and CEO.
