Executive Summary
Based on years of research and industry expertise, Pyramid's analysis of mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) takes a far-reaching look at future trends such as the growth of IP-based access technologies, which will open up new wholesale options for MVNOs. We look at new markets such as the enterprise market, logistics, health care and telematics to provide a unique focus beyond the much-analyzed consumer spaces.
This report offers new ideas for revenue opportunities as well as a discussion of how future technologies will drive and evolve the MVNO market going forward. We give advice on how to prepare for the future and embrace new trends such as IP, mobile broadband, multimedia and greater customer segmentation. We offer our position on technological trends, including: WLAN, GSM-EDGE, WCDMA, HSDPA and Flash-OFDM. In addition, select forecasts focus on segments such as the mobile enterprise market growth in Europe and the telematics market in Europe. We provide mobile data forecasts for the US and Western Europe as well as select UMTS forecasts.
In addition, in-depth case studies are featured for BT Bluephone; EasyMobile; mPortal, a data-centric MVNE; Symbol Air Logistics, an MVNO in the UK; JCI, a corporate MVNO in Japan; and Cardionet, a US-based healthcare MVNO.
