Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c20134) has announced the addition of Latin America Wireless to their offering
Latin American wireless carriers are expected to add between 55 and 90 million new subscribers between 2004 and 2009. Four countries, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and Colombia, will account
for 80 percent for most of the growth, making them key markets for wireless applications, handsets and services over the next five years.
This report is targeted at Telecoms, Wireless Operators and Infrastructure Providers, Handset Manufacturers, Content and Entertainment Firms and Marketers and Advertisers.
The Latin America Wireless report analyzes the consolidation that swept through Latin American telecommunications markets in the past year, resulting in a dramatically reshaped operating
environment.
The wireless sector is now largely a two-horse race between Mexico's Amrica Mvil (AMX), the wireless arm of Telmex, and Spain's Telefnica Mviles (TEM). Both have a sizable regional
presence and compete directly in Latin America's leading wireless markets.
Although most of the major available wireless properties have been taken off the market, the prospect of competition for spectrum allocation and smaller regional assets, especially in
Brazil, cannot be discounted. The rivalry will intensify when 3G licensing and deployment enter the picture, especially in countries with large subscriber bases like Mexico and
Brazil.
But, as in other developing regions, operators face significant challenges in offsetting falling voice revenues by graduating a largely pre-paid user population to high value-added data
services.
Key questions the Latin America Wireless report addresses:
- To what extent have mergers and acquisitions reshaped the Latin American wireless landscape
- Which markets are growing fastest
- What types of opportunities are present for wireless applications and services
- How will convergence affect wireless operators in the years ahead
And much more
