Insights into New Service Opportunities in Developing Economies - Telco Solutions Deliver Significant Economic Benefits


Dublin, March 26, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "New Service Opportunities in Developing Economies" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

A key focus of telcos is to shift from core services to emerging technologies, and in developing markets in particular, there is an opportunity to participate in socio-economic development in a way that will ensure relevance and revenues into the future.

Telcos are focusing more on new-age technology solutions and are exploring new opportunities and business models to generate new revenue streams using their unique ability to access rural and marginal sectors of the population to make a significant difference to the lives they touch.

Inspirations:

  • Poor financial inclusion makes transactions difficult, expensive and risky
  • Telco solutions deliver significant economic benefits
  • Increased economic activity/participation brings benefits to users and telcos

Issues:

  • Poor interoperability constrains benefit and impact
  • Shortage of resources (financial, technical, infrastructure, skills) limits development
  • ROI may depend on the whole-economy improvement

Implications

  • Long term customer-centric view is required
  • Partnership (commercial and with governments and non-profits) key to success
  • Working with the competition for wider economic benefits may be required
