Pyramid Research, the telecom research arm of the Light Reading (News - Alert) Communications Network, announced the launch of its new research service, which is primarily aimed at helping its clients to exploit new telecom revenue opportunities in emerging markets.

Under the new service, the research firm is going to offer a series of Industry Insight Packs which would combine Pyramid's extensive database resources with high-level expert analysis.

According to Pyramid, the global communications industry is currently undergoing a transformation. Faced with the challenges like falling subscriber revenues, the service providers are trying to identify growth opportunities in several emerging markets.

In a press release, Pyramid said that its new Industry Insight Packs offer up-to-the-minute data and market forecasts, an in-depth research report and a live session with a senior Pyramid analyst in a single package. The new service has been designed to offer clients seeking to enter the emerging markets, a complete resource to identify and evaluate the trends in high-growth telecom markets and sectors.

The research firm has initially launched four Industry Insight Packs which cover the following sectors:

• Mobile Broadband Devices: Global Landscape and Trends
• Mobile Commerce Landscape: Value Chains, Business Models and Innovations
• Fiber in the Last Mile (News - Alert): Network Business Models, Adoption Trends and Best Practices
• Universal Access to Broadband: Regulatory and Policy Best Practices in Emerging Markets

“In addition to our renown research expertise in Emerging Markets across Latin America, Africa and the Middle East and Asia/Pacific, Pyramid has built powerful Strategic and Functional credentials in key sectors such as Mobile Devices, Digital Content and Applications, Broadband and Media and Regulation and Policy through our fact-based approach to Consulting. Our Industry Insight Packs are yet another way we can offer our expertise across the sectors that matter most to leaders in the global communications industry,” Daniel Amparan, managing director for Pyramid Research, noted in a statement.

In an earlier report, Pyramid showed that rapid adoption of mobile computing devices in Taiwan, from smartphones to tablets and netbooks, were the main reason behind an expected 15.9 percent CAGR in mobile data service revenue between 2011 and 2016.
