The Mobile Ecosystem in Asia Pacific

Source: A. T. Kearney

From the publication web page:

Considering there are almost as many mobile connections as there are humans on the planet, it seems somewhat paradoxical that the Asia Pacific region is expected to add another 1.5 billion connections between 2010 and 2015—similar in scale to the past five years when 1.7 billion new connections were added. This year, the region will reach another milestone as it crosses the 3 billion connections mark. ...

This paper is an excerpt of a 2011 report commissioned by the GSM Association. We discuss the current state of the Asia Pacific mobile industry and highlight A.T. Kearney's Mobile Broadband Readiness Index (MBRI). The MBRI measures mobile adoption rates by country and identifies ways the mobile industry can sustain its growth from market, regulatory, and corporate strategy perspectives.
