It is hard to miss the mobile industry chatter around
mobile advertising. Analysts are telling us that it will
be a $20B market by 2012, but what will it take for the
industry to grow from less than $2B in 2007 to 10 times
the market size in 5 years.
Assuming the growth is possible:
• What hurdles need to be tackled? What opportunities
are created as a result?
• Who are the likely dominant players in the ecosystem?
• What new business models and price-points are likely
to emerge?
• How can content players and software vendors take
advantage of this opportunity?
• What are the metrics and measurements for advertising
success?
• What will successful implementations look like?
• How will mobile advertising evolve? And what
does this mean for the industry?
