Theme: Technology ‘medley’ is on the menu - eat wisely to enjoy it!
Squeezing more out of the network without shedding off subscribers is paramount when the economy frowns on us. Today, there are more choices of different technologies, more network options, more services - but winning subscribers still depends on providing low cost connectivity from optimised resource usage.

Theme: Mobile Virtual Network Operators – maintaining a successful model
The MVNO concept is now well accepted in many parts of the world, but commercial progress develops at variable speed and intensity. What are the secrets of success in different regions and in different business areas? Is regional regulation the reason or local aspects of culture and business influence MVNOs’ style and service adoption? In Europe, MVNOs are gaining independence of their hosting MNOs by running their own service platforms. They may use several MNOs to get best-service or best-package for their subscribers, often addressing particular niche markets. MVNOs create a wide range of business models – but these models must be enduring and must provide positive profit margins.

Theme:3G comes to India
India’s auctions of 3G spectrum licenses in 2010 marked the start of a new era for India’s approximately 600 million mobile users. The 3G spectrum will give them better Internet access and accelerate the growth of everything from eGovernment to eHealth, eCommerce, telemedicine and much more. Service providers and equipment vendors for businesses and consumers alike will all be hard pressed to keep up with the demand for everything from smartphones to consumer applications, and from infrastructure to billing and network management services. Despite the expected in 3G driven revenues, there are concerns that the prices paid for the spectrum will have the auction winners struggling for years to recuperate their investment. Some industry observers predict there will be a wave of consolidations in the sector as a result. Whatever happens, we can be sure that business users and consumers will both benefit greatly from the greatly enhanced services that 3G makes possible - and that competitive necessity and the need to generate a strong return on investment guarantees. One can expect that the focus on consumer needs will be redoubled as companies move to stake out their positions in this extremely dynamic market.

Theme: It’s more than outsourcing
The growth of India’s economy, driven by ICT and business process outsourcing has inspired comment and imitation the world over. The credit given to outsourcing is deserved, but the government policies, astute entrepreneurs, a vast number of well educated and prepared professionals that made India’s success in this field are often overlooked. India’s growing potential to source new service and products, not just outsource the operations of others, and its ability to move ahead by its own efforts are also overlooked by those not familiar with the country’s vast pool of talent and potential. This issue of Connect-World India will examine India’s growing strength and look a bit down the road it is travelling.

Theme: Seamless networks and seamless business in a seamless world
Technologically, if not politically, the world is becoming increasingly interconnected, interdependent and interoperable. Few if any big companies are ‘national’ in the old sense; they no longer exist, work buy supplies and services and sell within the boundaries of a single nation. Supply chains and processes of all sorts reach into other nations and at times circle the globe crossing and interacting with one another, first in one nation than another, in subtle and complex ways.
Nowhere is this more obvious than in India, where broadband connectivity has, seemingly overnight, reinvented the country’s economy and re-written its future. More than just outsourcing, taking over existing processes in behalf of companies in other parts of the world, India is increasingly sourcing its own processes, its own technologies and products.
The speed and seamless interconnection and interoperability of the world’s networks, both wired and wireless, using a wide variety of transmission media and technologies, is now so common it is rarely noticed by the user, but much of India’s growth depends upon just this. This effortless connectivity makes possible the seamless interoperability of business processes and supply chains spread throughout the world. Today’s technology is inventing a seamless, global, work environment that might, one day, lead to a seamless world.
This issue of Connect-World India will explore the influence of information and communication technology upon the transformation of India, and how India is itself transforming the technology and processes and helping create a seamless world.

Theme: Telecom - the business environment
So, how's business? Those in the telecom sector have many questions, some answers and few certainties. What is the business? What is the market? What is the business model? Nowadays, the telecom market is somewhat like Alice in the looking glass. Nothing is quite what it seems to be, what it used to be, or what it should be by traditional standards.
Convergence, access, networks - wired versus wireless and real versus virtual, wired plus wireless, broadcast versus narrowcast, IPTV, xDSL, voice the revenue driver or voice over IP, the wrecker, privacy and protection - these are just a few of the telecom areas in search of a viable future, the list goes on. What is your opinion? What are the real issues in your area? What is the most likely model for future success? What seems to be in store for your sector? What can government do to divide the storm-tossed waters and lead the sector safely through to the other side?
