  1. M-Learning Forum Market Trends in Mobile and Wireless Phil Kendall Director Global Wireless Practice, Strategy Analytics pkendall@strategyanalytics.com

  2. Agenda • Wireless Data Now • Key Trends and Emerging Dynamics • The Wireless Data Story to Date • The Future for Wireless Data • Identifying Winning Segments • Identifying Winning Applications • Identifying Winning Devices

  3. Wireless Industry Macro Trends • Global Wireless Subscribers approach 1.8 billion by 2006 - penetration in developed markets will exceed 80%; • High Bandwidth services will sentence voice to the ICE Age; • Entertainment, Content and Commerce will be dominant in the second half of this decade; • Success for Wireless Operators will be closely linked to their ability to: • gain a first mover advantage in advanced network technologies (location, voice navigation, unified messaging, etc.); • develop extensive customer profiles and exploit these to connect with customers on a personal level; • embrace and engage content and media empires. • New marriages between content, computer, communication and automotive industries will emerge & mVNOs proliferate

  4. Key Challenges for Wireless Industry • CUSTOMER ACQUISITION • CUSTOMER RETENTION • VALUE CREATION • improving voice usage still critical; • tapping into data revenues ASAP a must.
