The 2nd last speaker at The Annual was Dr Alan Knot-Craig former Vodacom CEO that discussed issues and possible predictions in relations to the Telecommunication Environment in 2010:
- Mobile operators will reduce some of their tariffs by some 20%. The opportunity will be lower input costs for business and consumers but challenge on the other hand to incentives private investors to continue investing in infrastructure.
- Television broadcast to mobile phones may become reality and impact current pay TV
- Broadband speeds should increase by 50%
- Lower margins will squeeze out competitors
- Vodacom as a brand may disappear and Vodafone will enter the arena
