Bulking up, Dash Carrier Services and VIXXI Solutions have merged, making Dash a big kid on the block when it comes to E911 and wholesale carrier services.

Earlier this year — March, to be precise — Dash and VIXXI announced a “strategic relationship” where Dash would use VIXXI’s E911 database services.  It would appear the relationship worked out very well for both parties since it now makes Dash a one-stop shop for wholesale carrier and emergency services.  The Dash CEO becomes President of VIXXI while VIXXI’s former president/CEO now joins the Dash board of directors.

There’s probably a very interesting “behind the scenes” story on how the relationship evolved from a strategic partnership to an acquisition, but it’s no big secret that “strategic partnerships” sometimes become trial marriages.
