RapidCloud International Plc

("RapidCloud", the "Company" or the "Group")

Strategic partnership & distributorship with a leading Internet Service Provider, Thailand

RapidCloud International plc (AIM: RCI), the computing services, web-hosting and web-solutions provider based in Southeast Asia, announces that, via its associate Emerge Systems (Thailand) Limited, it has signed a strategic partnership and distributorship with CS Loxinfo PCL ("CS Loxinfo"), a leading systems integrator and Internet Services Provider (ISP) in Thailand, for an initial period of three years.

CS Loxinfo, together with its subsidiaries, provides Internet data centre services, leased line, broadband and satellite services for domestic and international communications in Thailand.

The partnership will allow CS Loxinfo to offer its large-scale enterprises and SME customers a selection of RapidCloud's enterprise cloud applications, beginning with RapidCRM, the Sales Automation and Management tool, on a revenue sharing basis. RapidCRM will be offered to enterprises in a choice of public-cloud or on-premise cloud environment.

Founded in 1994, CS Loxinfo is one of the most long standing and recognised ISP brands in Thailand with a considerable and wide-reaching customer base. The partnership offers a significant opportunity to RapidCloud, and is expected to speed the Company's growing presence within the Thailand enterprise market, substantially.

CS Loxinfo's parent company, Intouch Holdings PCL is a Thai holding company that focusses on telecommunication and is also the parent company of Advanced Info Service PCL (AIS), the largest mobile operator in Thailand and Thaicom PCL, Thailand's satellite operator and part of SET50 Index of Thailand Stock Exchange.

As previously stated, Telecommunication companies play a central role in RapidCloud's growth strategy and the Group continues to seek similar partner channel opportunities, which complement its strong direct sales model.

Raymond Chee, Managing Director of RapidCloud, said: "We are delighted to be partnering with CS Loxinfo, one of the market leaders in the Thailand Internet Services and Systems Integration industry. CS Loxinfo's selection of our solutions is another strong endorsement by a major services provider and we are confident that this partnership will yield significant penetration of the Thailand Internet broadband market."
