OYSTER BAY, New York, March 6, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
WHO:
ABI Research, a market-foresight advisory firm providing strategic guidance on the most compelling transformative technologies, had several of our research analysts on-site at Mobile World Congress 2018 in Barcelona, Spain, between Feb. 26-March 1, 2018.
WHAT:
ABI Research has compiled 13 quick reads, focusing on the most compelling transformative technologies, that highlight the "Future of the Mobile Industry: A Reality Check From Mobile World Congress 2018." Our analysts' perspectives help strategically guide our clients to see the bigger picture and act on it now.
WHY:
MWC 2018 left many of the analysts at ABI Research deeply concerned about the future health of the mobile ecosystem and the Mobile Service Provider (MSP) community. There is a growing chasm between what MSPs should be doing versus what they are doing and can do.
Here are some noteworthy observations:
- It's about solutions not technologies: MSPs are not simplifying the decision tree for potential customers but rather complicating it and slowing down market momentum.
- Digital transformation is more than a technology drive: It's a complete end-to-end process that touches IT, operations, human resources, management structure and corporate culture.
- MSPs can't talk vertical language: There is a fundamental disconnect between how MSPs communicate and how potential vertical market customers outline needs.
- There is no killer business model: MSPs have an unnatural fixation with killer apps and business models. There will be no single model for 5G.
- More partnerships needed, can't build it alone: MSPs need more partnerships than ever to build a competitive technological ecosystem-based solution while at the same time, correctly exposing their capabilities to prospective new clients.
