With the insatiable demand for smartphones, tablets and connected devices, users are generating more global data traffic every day. According to the Cisco Visual Networking Index (VNI), the global mobile data traffic grew 2.3 times in 2011 and is expected to reach 1.3 zettabytes annually (110 exabytes per month) by 2016. This is a 4-fold growth from 2011 to 2016! At the same time, the Cisco Internet Business Solutions Group (IBSG) finds that 80% of the mobile video and mobile Internet usage is when an individual is nomadic, such as when they are stationary and indoor and could be connected to a Wi-Fi network. These demands are leading to an increased forecast of Wi-Fi hotspots; Cisco IBSG expects that the number of Wi-Fi hotspots is expected to reach 2.7 million, with usage growing 200 % by 2014.

The increase in Wi-Fi usage leads to opportunities for Service Providers to provide networks that will not only offload the traditional macro cellular network, but also present an opportunity for Wi-Fi to become a potential source of monetization for the providers.

In this session, Cisco experts will discuss the monetization opportunities that Service Providers can consider as they deploy Wi-Fi networks to support the increase in mobile data traffic. Opportunities to be discussed include:

  • Bundled Wi-Fi network with other provider services
  • End-user subscription services
  • Value-added services including advertising
