| NOTAS: | "Global mobile connections are forecast to hit 7.6 billion in 2015 and revenues are expected to reach $1,000bn by 2013. This reflects a slight increase in our connections forecasts and a corresponding increase in our revenues outlook from our last published forecasts. The effects of continued growth in emerging markets and intense competition worldwide are the reasons for these changes. As a result, Ovum is more positive about the recovery of telecoms revenues after the difficulties experienced by operators in 2008 and 2009. This report updates the July 2010 version of the Global Mobile Market Outlook: 2010-15 with the figures from our most recent forecasts, and it is intended as an accompaniment to the forecasts. The Global Mobile Market Outlook series summarizes the trends that Ovum believes will shape the mobile industry in the next five years." |
