About us

Based on the island of Malta, 3am Systems offers product development and support services for the embedded, wireline and wireless ICT sectors.

Our origins came about from initiatives to develop a streamlined board support package for a successful line of payment terminals. We then went on to launch our website and to publish the World Tone Database, a resource highly sought after by VoIP, IP-PBX and wireline telephony professionals, and that has helped us secure worldwide brand recognition.

It was Brian Cauchi that came up with the name while working on tool chains in the early hours; that fateful day was the 25th of June, 2002. Five years on and with the arrival of like-minded business partner Isay Goltman, the company was incorporated.

The founders have extensive international experience in biomedical instrumentation, consumer electronics, industrial controls and the payment terminal sector, and they have worked in R&D with product development teams in the Ukraine, Europe, the United States and South America.
