Mobile Internet for Emerging Markets

Internet is the key driving force in the market gearing towards its promises of reaching 4 billion subscriptions during 2010. This wave of the Internet is making it truly MOBILE -- creating new ways for people to connect with each other and to access information on the move. In this talk recorded at Saltmarch Media's Great Indian Developer Summit, the VP & MD of Nokia India D Shivakumar says music, navigation services and mobile TV are part of what had been anticipated to play a key role in spearheading this growth. But it had been notably clear that the driving business force backing this up is no other than the emerging India market where an increasing numbers of people are accessing the internet for the first time on their mobile rather than a PC. The proliferation of this demand in an immerse market like India has unveiled a world of opportunities left un-tapped. Shivakumar strives to review and evaluate current trends while anticipating new movements of the mobile internet alongside with in-depth consumer insights that are key to the makings and being part of this technology convergence revolution.

Backed with over two decades of management expertise and deep insights to the consumer market in India, Shiv heads up and drives the Nokia mobile phones business in India while providing strategic direction and operational focus. Besides working at consolidating Nokia’s market presence, he also focuses on building the Nokia brand, driving partnerships and strategic alliances and developing the capabilities of the Nokia organization in India. Over the years, Shivakumar has been able to chart an excellent track record of managing businesses, people and customer relationships and has gained a good understanding of the changing needs of customers and a wealth of experience in delivering solutions.
