2nd Release - 1st July 2006
The MVNO Directory ? Europe, North America and the Rest of the World?
The wireless carrier world has enjoyed lengthy periods of unchallenged and monopolistic growth around the world. In 1999 The Virgin Group partnered with One2One in the UK and launched what is now looked upon as the ultimate MVNO model. Since then many onlookers have tried to launch their own MVNO operation, some with great success and others with dramatic failure before even announcing their existence to the market. Blycroft Publishing is pleased to announce ?The MVNO Directory?, the resource where the telecommunications world can find the world?s MVNO details in one place.
We have examined the global MVNO arena and profiled MVNOs around the world. ?The MVNO Directory? seeks to put you in touch with the key management and decision-makers for hundreds of MVNO operations.
We have researched almost every MVNO and guarantee to provide you with:
* Name of each MVNO profiled
*
The physical / postal address of each MVNO
* A central telephone number so you can make contact with the MVNO
*
?and crucially, at least one senior named individual per MVNO for you to contact
For most MVNO profiles we have also provided:
*
Multiple contacts within the MVNOs? management teams (we do not provide direct lines or personal e-mail addresses unless published by the MVNO)
*
A central fax number
* An overall company e-mail address
*
The launch date of each operation
*
Carrier(s) (mobile network operator) utilised
*
MVNE relationships
*
Geographic focuses
*
Target markets
* Handsets promoted
*
The parent company in charge of each MVNO operation
We have also found additional profile information for some MVNOs, this can include:
*
Indicative subscriber stats
* Revenue figures
Quality of the Data
Research for ?The MVNO Directory? began March 2006. The current volume was first released June 1st 2006 and due to market activity in this single month we provided a 2nd release for July 2006.
The primary resources for data gathering are the actual MVNO operations, their parent companies and the carriers and MVNEs used. Web research and direct email / telephone research have taken place ? where possible we have verified profile information with each MVNO. We have also extracted information from official government and regulatory resources. By closely following traditional and new media wireless and nonwireless news resources we fully believe that ?The MVNO Directory? can offer all potential buyers peace of mind.
