Key Observations of Operator VC & Innovation Strategies
Operators are banking on innovation to save them from a future as a dumb pipe.
Venturing is now being absorbed into the overall strategy for partnering and new services.
Operators from outside of the U.S. are looking to partner with firms from Silicon Valley.
“Digital” initiatives have been set up across several divisions in some telcos while others are setting up dedicated units

M2M and cloud hold huge promise but their potential has been overhyped
M2M revenues are generating $4.6bn annually for mobile operators.
Telco cloud revenues will be worth $5.7bn in 2012

Operator focus is moving away from the consumer market to B2B and B2B2C
• The “two-sided business business-model has never really got much traction.
• Operators still believe in the strategy of exposing their APIs but monetisation is difficult.
• Operators are (slowly) starting to verticalize their enterprise divisions.
• In many verticals operators will pursue both B2B2C and B2C business models.
• Carrier billing is gaining momentum.

•Although monetization options will multiply around new video-on-demand and digital-locker services, most video streaming will continue to be consumed for free.
•Piracy will also continue to undermine revenue-generating efforts, especially in emerging markets.
•Operators’ video and TV offerings will become increasingly irrelevant as over-the-top players take center-stage via smartphone apps.
•OTT services – from movie rentals, to catch-up TV and e-commerce sites – will help turn video streaming into a mainstream activity on phones, engaging 35% of mobile users globally by 2016.
