The telecommunications industry has been hit hard by a decline in fixed-line revenues led by tumbling long-distance prices and flat-rate mobile plans that lowered per-minute charges. And all this has taken place during one of the nastiest economic environments in years, exacerbating the erosion of telcos core businesses. Industry watchers attribute the erosion to three driving factors: mobile, cable, and IP.
Telecom challenges
- Robust mobile subscriber growth
- Cable telephony
- Innovative new IP-based services
- Fierce competition in the mobile market
- New business responses
- Wireless migration
- Rollout of VoIP
