| Successful Strategies for the Mobile Broadband Market |
|
Many people are talking and writing about the mobile broadband market, what it looks like and how it will develop, but very few have analysed and described all the facets of this market. We know that the mobile broadband market is the fastest growing market in the history of the mobile industry - never before has a product been sold in such large quantities in such a short time.
We believe that the mobile industry, the broadband industry and the many players doing business on the mobile broadband market and mobile broadband services market face a number of challenges. The single largest challenge is how to tackle this market and create a future proof successful strategy. If you examine the mobile broadband market and how it has already developed on a number of markets, there is no doubt that success comes with a downside - a downside that will have enormous consequences for market players that are not using the correct mobile strategy.

| How technology providers get success on the MVNO market |
|
Most technology providers in the mobile world perceive MVNOs as a new segment and are all asking the same question: How do you address this customer segment?
Many technology and infrastructure providers have a naive belief that the MVNO market operates in the same way as the MNO market. However experience has shown that they are two different markets and that there are enormous differences in the business models being used on the two markets.
This report not only gives you the necessary information about the MVNO market, what it looks like and how it will develop, but also describes how the most successful players on the market are doing business and how they achieved their success.

| How to Succeed in the Second-Generation MVNO Market |
|
The report is much more than a market assessment. It’s an action plan that shows you how to thrive in a difficult market. It analyses the newest trends and explores, in particular, how best to proceed at a time when most MVNOs are pushing cheap voice minutes and SIMs, copying the now-famous Telmore model.
In this report we don’t just describe market trends. We consider all players in the value chain and explain their situation so that you can come to appreciate all the actual and potential influences on the MVNO market. This report is, therefore, an essential tool for your success in this market.
When we launched our first MVNO report, the consensus was that the “Danish flu” would not spread to other markets. Most MNOs said that this was a Scandinavian phenomenon, and argued that discount players would not be successful in their own markets. However, shortly after we published the report in 2003, discount MVNOs began springing up in Norway, Finland, Germany, Belgium, Spain, France and a host of other countries.

| Mega Trends in the mobile industry |
| - a question of life or death |
If you look back at the GSM market and how it has developed historically, the industry has not changed much in many areas since the first operators emerged. The focus has been on attracting and maintaining the number of customers required to run a profitable business.
The tools have been a wide distribution of cheap subsidised telephones, combined with falling prices, which has changed the mobile telephone from being a luxury product reserved for just a few people, to becoming a product available to a large part of the world's population.
Bad times and crises were something unheard of before the years 2000 to 2002, where a number of countries chose to auction their 3G licenses. |

| How to get success - in the 3. Generation Value Added Service Market |
|
The market for mobile services started with primitive information services delivered via SMS. With the introduction of Nokia's smart messaging, a market for ring tones was created that was stimulated by premium SMS’s that worked across operators – with the introduction of one short code that worked across all operators, a whole new industry was created with a revenue in Western Europe of over 2 billion Euro in 2004.
We believe the market for mobile services will continue to develop positively, but that the introduction of new technologies and more advanced mobile phones combined with the fact that many operators are under financial pressure, will lead to a paradigm shift on the mobile services market. |

| A new report on the Danish mobile market, looking at the challenges facing Operators, Handset manufacturers and retailers, and how these will influence their business. |
The mobile market has in the last years experienced fierce competition. Declining voice and SMS prices, and the unbalanced focus on growing the customer base. Penetration has reached a point where it is difficult to find new attractive segments, compared to the acquisition cost, and ARPU.
