Basset Telecom Report #1: How to stay ahead in a risky marketplace

The global telecom arena is undergoing rapid change, mainly due to a technology upshift in the next generation networks and a wave of deregulation swiping operator markets all over the world. This is opening up for a diversified marketplace, which makes it difficult to foresee what type of services users are willing to pay for. Flat-fee for data traffic is considered a must, while paying $4.99 for "Angry Birds HD" is a no-brainer.

The winning operator in this competitive marketplace must have a clear strategy for the next generation networks, understanding their customers and the right set of tools for analyzing their revenue streams.
