The report details the growth in mobile ownership, the challenges of growth and the criticality of a pan-African solution and development of “One Network” economies of scale. Warning that growth will only occur through regulatory support of more operator licenses, it also proposes the need for “mobile-friendly” policies. This in turn will speed the deployment of mobile services in the poorest countries who are discovering that mobile penetration can be used to jump-start wider economic growth.
In conjunction with the new Mobile Tariffs Africa Report, operators, regulators and investors can speedily grasp the growing opportunities, deployment and current pricing regime for mobile businesses in Africa.
