If one thing is clear about M2M, the market is growing with no sign of stopping. Pyramid Research recently reported that cellular M2M subscriptions are expected to increase almost fourfold between 2010 and 2016. Meanwhile, Gartner (News - Alert) recently revealed the market is already experiencing 30 to 40 percent annual growth.

This projected explosion of devices connecting to the network certainly raises some questions about performance, assurance and monetization; so what better time to familiarize yourself with the current status of the M2M ecosystem?

The experts in hosted billing services for cable, telecommunication and utility operators, Cycle30 will host a webinar designed to provide new perspective on the monetization of M2M, based on lessons the company has already learned in the space. Entitled “Billing World Webinar: The Monetization of M2M,” this informative webinar will be held Wednesday, Dec. 7, 2 p.m. EST.

In addition to defining M2M for the service provider, this webinar will address partnering options between service providers, device manufacturers and solution providers; what M2M translates for the solutions provider; the true size of the M2M opportunity; and requirements for an end-to-end solution.

Attendees will also gain new direction on the appropriate go-to market strategy, and explore innovative ways of thinking about advance billing and the elements of monetizing M2M in order to prepare for what’s to become of the M2M market.

Leading the webinar will be Jim Dunlap, president of Cycle30; and Michael Kirk, director of M2M markets for the company.
