Mobile Entertainment Growth to Decline by 7% p.a. due to Global Recession. A new report from Juniper Research warns that, while its best case forecasts estimate that the mobile entertainment market will reach nearly $36bn in 2010, revenue growth will be markedly lower if the global recession fails to bottom-out over the next twelve months. Using a scenario-based approach to assess the impact of the recession on the mobile entertainment industry, the report found that average annual growth over the next two years declines from nearly 19% under the best case scenario to less than 7% in the worst case, with mobile TV, user-generated content and music amongst those sectors which are particularl...

  Give impetus to Rural Telecom.   By Abraham Paul, MD CEO Future Groups (India), FCOMNET (UAE)   In spite of the few hiccups in the beginning, the privatization has pushed Telecom business in India making the services available and affordable to common man.   Most of the issues in the beginning were due to inertia of the incumbent provider in changing their old mindset. The main aspect of telecom expansion being that it virtually reduces space making the distance immaterial, the initial decision of making the GSM Wireless Telecom license areas co-terminus with existing telecom circles was one of the major flaws. Over and above disallowing of direct interconnects between different networks of the Service Provider forced them to make multiple investments on one side and loss of revenue to the incumbent operator on the other side.      Bringing in the concept of Pan India Telecom with Unified Licensing was a positive step to correct few of these earlier wrong doings. But the present...

My  salutes to Mr Narayana Murthy and Mr Mashelkar! Today in Economic Times the brain storming article having same heading made me really excited and highly hopeful towards future of application of researches in science and technology in commercial field.As in my whole career I felt that its lagging too much in our country (except southern parts of India).Whatever researches are going on in big government institutes remain in journals and proceedings of seminars.Very few come up in application.While crores of rupees are spent every year by many funding sectors viz; UGC,CSIR,DBT and many more. Today after reading views of Mr Narayan Murthy and Mr Mashelkar I felt really supportive from their side as I have requested in many seminars and meetings about this innovation. Mr Narayan Murthy: What we really require is science,technology and innovation policy.Innovation is mind to market,concept to commercialisation.In the rest of the world you see that is happening. Mr Mashelkar: Human...
