"(...) Since its inception in 1995, Dialog has continued to spearhead Sri Lanka's position as a regional and global leader in terms of Advanced Mobile Services, and even more importantly in terms of the plural affordability and life changing value of the resulting services to the country's population. 

Sri Lanka was the first country in South Asia to launch GSM services in 1995 and has since secured many other regional firsts including the first 3G-enabled country in 2006 and the first nation to support commercial 4G services in 2013. Sri Lanka has also been recognised by the ITU for providing its citizens with the most affordable (lowest priced) Mobile and Data services. 

More recently, a World Development Report published by The World Bank highlighted Sri Lanka as world leader in terms of the affordability and availability of mobile services while another report published by US-based Akamai Technologies placed Sri Lanka ahead of nations such as Australia, Malaysia, China and India in terms of Broadband speeds. (...)"

Eir (eircom) gonfle sa fibre pour 2016-18 (bande large / TV) (high-speed broadband, irland, rural)

(27/02/2016)
Work begins on high speed broadband in three west villages

EIR reveals that Donard, Dunlavin and Kiltegan will be next to receive service

“(...) We expect the initial homes to be connected in late 2016, with 85pc of premises in Ireland to have access to high-speed broadband by 2018, with an ambition of 100pc by the end of 2020,” a Government spokesperson told Siliconrepublic.com before Christmas. (...)"

*********************************

(Feb 24, 2016)

"(...)Telecoms firm Eir is pushing ahead with a plan to provide high-speed broadband to 300,000 homes earmarked for the rural broadband scheme.

The move poses a serious challenge to the Government’s intervention strategy as EU state aid rules forbid an intervention if a private operator is already supplying the market.

The Department of Communication plans to award two subsidised contracts for the rollout of broadband to 757,000 homes in rural Ireland later this year 2016.

Eir, however, told The Irish Times it expects to have up to 100,000 of these homes connected to its new fibre network by the end of this year 2016, with a further 200,000 connected over the following three years. (...)"

Time is right for telcos to profit from mobile TV

By Mary Lennighan, Total Telecom, in Barcelona
Tuesday 23 February 2016


"Operators can win customers by offering more targeted content, leveraging their billing assets to encourage consumers to make small purchases."

"[There is] definitely revenue uplift," said Guillaume Sampic, head of strategy at U.K. mobile operator and provider of a nascent TV service EE, speaking at an event hosted by Total Telecom and TV technology provider Netgem in Barcelona on Tuesday.

"We heavily cross-sell [EE TV] to our home broadband" and mobile customer bases, he said. (...)"

SLIDE 18 – MEDIA
Telstra Media continued to deliver ‘Better with Telstra’ content experiences to create value from our core business through Media ‘In the Home’ and Media ‘On the Go’.
In the Home, we continued our strategy to bundle with core fixed products, including the launch of Telstra TV in October 2015.
Foxtel from Telstra revenue grew by 8.7% to $350m and subscribers grew 17.9% to 660,000. This growth was due to the increased take up of the Telstra entertainer bundles.

The shift in focus towards Foxtel from Telstra in our bundle offers has impacted IPTV revenues which were down 19.0%, reflecting the transition from T-Box sales to Telstra TV sales.

Excluding revenue from T-Box sales and Foxtel on T-Box, IPTV revenue grew 12.3% due to net IPTV subscriber growth.

IPTV subscriber growth of 17.9% included 92,000 new SVOD subscribers across T-Box and Telstra TV. 

SVOD growth was partially offset by a decline in Foxtel on T-Box subscribers – down from 190,000 subscribers in the first half of FY15, to 132,000 in this half. As at 31 December 2015, we had 43,000 Telstra TVs in market. 

The Telstra TV represents an opportunity to provide a media experience for customers who aren’t traditional Pay TV customers, but also capitalise on the rapidly changing media landscape. We know that customers who bundle media services are happier and stay with us for longer.

Media ‘On the Go’ revenue decreased 17.1% due to declining legacy mobile download services. This reflects a shift in strategy from direct media revenue towards differentiation and data usage across Telstra's core products. We achieved 41% revenue growth from our AFL and NRL subscribers.

=> The decline in movie downloads reflects the transition from T-Box to the Telstra TV platform. ..."

Netgem client wins Award for forward-looking fibre-optic provider - POST Luxembourg TV+ cloud

(17 February 2016)

"At this year’s annual multinational conference of the “FTTH Council Europe”, which takes place from 16th to 18th February 2016 in the halls of LuxExpo at Luxembourg-Kirchberg, POST Luxembourg was awarded the “FTTH Council Europe Award” for its efforts in the expansion of FTTH.

FTTH stands for “Fibre To The Home”. With this form of electronic high-speed data connectivity, the fibre ends – as its name suggests – in the customer’s home; the fibre material used has the flexibility of copper cable and so enables optimal installation. The FTTH Council is an industry association that actively promotes this advanced technology in Europe. (...)

Exemplary open business model

In addition, the FTTH Council Europe said, POST Luxembourg is one of the most progressive fibre-optic providers in Europe, which offers its customers a transmission rate of 1 Gbit/s, innovative TV, streaming and cloud services, and establishes high performance public WiFi networks for Luxembourg municipalities.

The open business model of POST Luxembourg, which allows various providers to offer their services on the same infrastructure, is also exemplary and encourages competition, and offers individual customers as well as commercial enterprises an ideal range of options.

POST Luxembourg is honoured to be awarded this renowned prize and welcomes the opportunity to present its optic fibre network to the experts attending the FTTH Conference in Luxembourg. The company regards the “FTTH Council Europe Award” as an additional incentive to continue its efforts to expand FTTH further in future."

EE TV multi-écrans sera conservée par BT ("TV as a service")

LE 08/02/2016 "L’offre EE TV sera conservée par BT A l’occasion de la publication de ses résultats T3, BT annonce sa décision de conserver la marque EE et plus particulièrement l’offre EE TV. Dans le cadre de la restructuration du nouveau groupe, BT va s’organiser en 6 pôles d’activités dont EE. La marque EE va par conséquent être conservée et le groupe continuera de proposer l’offre EE TV à ses clients des services mobiles. Pour rappel, BT avait racheté EE début 2015 et des incertitudes planaient sur la volonté de BT de conserver toutes les offres de EE et notamment EE TV. Après la perte du contrat Tier1 Telstra au T3 2014, Netgem avait remporté au T4 de la même année un nouveau contrat avec EE, le leader du marché des opérateurs mobiles (plus de 30 millions de clients). L’offre porte sur la commercialisation de TV multi-écrans (TV, Smartphones et Tablettes) intégrant plus de 70 chaînes gratuites, la VOD, les technologies d’enregistrement et de rattrapage. Se basant sur la dernière box haut de gamme développée par Netgem, cette offre de ‘‘TV as a service’’ est proposée gratuitement aux abonnés mobiles qui souscrivent au service internet de EE. Ce nouveau contrat a permis à Netgem de compenser la perte de son premier client Telstra et de retrouver rapidement la croissance de sa topline. Rappelons que Netgem a publié un CA annuel en croissance de 9% à 78.8 M€, avec un T4 en forte progression de 28% à 18.2 M€."

Bonne nouvelle pour tous ceux qui sont équipés d’un téléviseur datant d’avant 2012 : ils pourront conserver leur appareil et recevoir la TNT grâce à la Box de Videofutur. Le 5 avril 2016, le norme de la TNT va se moderniser avec la généralisation du MPEG-4 qui entraînera l’arrêt de la diffusion avec la norme MPEG-2. Conséquence pour les utilisateurs qui disposent d’un téléviseur commercialisé avant décembre 2012 : ils devront s’équiper d’un adaptateur TV. La Box de Videofutut propose une alternative à ce problème. En effet, proposée via un abonnement à 10€/mois, cette box permettra aux foyers de conserver leur téléviseur et de recevoir les chaînes de la TNT en HD. En prime, ces utilisateurs pourront profiter de services de télévision tels que : 8 chaînes Premium (Paramount Channel, Disney Channel, Virgin Radio TV, Game One, BBC World News, Equidia Live & Life et BET) un accès à des milliers de contenus en replay 1000 films & programmes jeunesse inclus en VOD un accès à un catalogue de plus de 10 000 films & séries, à la carte et en HD" Source: https://www.degroupnews.com/breves/les-anciens-televiseurs-compatibles-avec-la-box-videofutur

This is a massive opportunity for Telcos in their fight against value erosion and also fuels competition for “ownership” of the household, via quad-play offers and bundles. We think 2016 is the year of mobile TV. Just not the same mobile TV from 10 years ago. Get in touch with the form below to meet us at MWC and discover Telco-Grade mobile TV that can really bring value to your business. Netgem will be at the French Pavilion, Hall 8.1 – D41, but we can meet elsewhere too, just let us know your preference in the message box below. http://www.netgem.com/contact.php?&lang=2
