WorldCell is a provider of international wireless service for federal agencies, international businesses, and individual travelers.
WorldCell was formed in 1996. The privately owned company was originally founded as International Mobile Communications, Inc., and began primarily as a retail mobile phone service, renting international cell phones to travelers for limited periods of time.
After 2000, the company shifted its focus to providing wireless management services to corporations and transitioned the rental service to its TravelComm division. In 2002, IMC Inc launched the Viking Wireless GSM network through its subsidiary IMC Island ehf, allowing IMC to be officially categorized as a wireless carrier (as opposed to a "reseller.") In 2005 the company was re-branded as WorldCell. Two years later, in 2007, WorldCell signed several agreements with international mobile technology companies, such as Aicent, Inc and Accuris Networks.
WorldCell currently administers managed wireless services to the federal government and commercial organizations, using agreements with overseas carriers such as Vodafone, O2, KPN, and Docomo.
WorldCell's headquarters are based in Silver Spring, Maryland, a few miles outside of Washington DC. In addition to its corporate headquarters, WorldCell has offices in Reykjavík, Iceland and Tokyo, Japan.
