"The telecom sector is still a driver for the development of advanced marketplaces. The exploitation of technologies for communication aims, both by companies and by consumers, is not yet complete if compared to the potential impact on life and business models. Technology evolves always more quickly than what people and organizations habits do. The diffusion of both IP protocol and broadband, even in mobility, is creating new opportunities both for offer widening (from interactive media content to the most advanced inter-work applications) and for industry asset (fixed - mobile convergence, tlc and IT services integration, entrance of new specialized operators).
Value Partners is currently working at all these issues with sector major operators, to accelerate the comprehension of the new phenomena and to develop innovative projects"
