AUSTIN, TX — (Marketwire) — 03/07/13 — iGR, a market research consultancy focused on the wireless and mobile industry, announces a free webinar that will define Mobile Virtualization and discuss its potential impact on the mobile ecosystem. The webinar will be held Wednesday, March 13 at 2pm CDT and can be registered for on the iGR website:
Mobile virtualization is a hot topic in the wireless industry today. However, there is considerable lack of knowledge as to what constitutes mobile virtualization and how and when it will be implemented by mobile operators. Mobile virtualization will also enable new business models for mobile network operators, device OEMs and a new type of MVNO.
There are potential downsides for the mobile network operators with mobile virtualization — without careful consideration for the business models, the operators could be pushed more into a -bit pipe- role. However, with careful deployment and consideration for the overall impact, mobile virtualization could also allow the mobile network operators, and the vendors that support them, to realize new opportunities.
In this free webinar, iGR will discuss:
The three types of mobile virtualization and how they differ
Current standards efforts for mobile virtualization
Potential impact on the current mobile ecosystem
Issues that must be addressed for mobile virtualization to become reality.
