ITS European Regional Workshop

On Mobile Telecom Services

Berlin, Germany

April 4-5, 1997

 
   

  

    
Overview:

   
Objectives

  To provide an international forum for discussing the key issues and problems currently faced by manufacturers, service providers and telecommunications companies and their regulators in the area of mobile services. The workshop is international and is run by practitioners for practitioners in a "hands-on" approach so that alternative approaches can be demonstrated and compared.

Participants

  The workshop is intended for anyone in the mobile service sector, who is involved in planning and decision-making. In addition researchers from academic or financial institutions involved in the study of the sector may also benefit from the workshop.

Workshop Approach

  Pricing, marketing, product positioning, standardization, frequency allocation, internationalization and roaming have been at the heart of decision-making in the mobile service sector. With the move towards a competitive industry structure and the overlap between fixed and mobile services a workshop analyzing the key issues in the recent history of the industry and its likely evolution, is timely, not only to aid in the ongoing decision-making process, but also to understand the motives behind the moves of competitors and regulators.
