Leading the way in the Networked Society
LATAMINSIGHTS
2 INSIGHTS: REGION LATIN AMERICA AND CARIBBEAN JUNE 2015
All industries are facing transformation, with the digitization of services and the shift from physical consumption to virtual products. In the modern, disruptive environment, businesses are turning to smarter ways of working and new collaborative models, all of which are driving demand for greater levels of connectivity and mobility.
The introduction of 5G will not happen in a single, clearly visible step. 5G will, just as the generations of mobile technologies before it, evolve gradually over time, and become an essential component in realizing the Networked Society. We expect that fully commercial 5G systems will enter the market sometime around the year 2020 and that today’s LTE technology will evolve to become part of 5G.
We believe that in the 5G era, operators will have one physical network infrastructure and one pool of frequency bands, supporting many separate virtualized networks (slices), each with unique characteristics for meeting the specific requirements of the 5G application it serves – for example in a utility or transport context.
5G will put substantial requirements on the radio interface, the core network, support solutions and the devices. It will require enormous technological advances. In many machine-to-machine applications, for example, 5G will require enhanced air interfaces,
enhancements to the core network, as well as strengthened support systems. 5G will need to meet new performance levels. It will enable the Networked Society to realize its full potential, where everything is not only connected, but connected for a purpose.

liberationfrom location
A report from Ericsson ConsumerLab shows that the boundaries between work and personal life, and between being at home and outdoors are blurring in the way consumers use their mobile devices. People tend to switch screens (devices) to access services and content across different locations, regardless of time and place.
Communication is a quintessential need. We meet it by being accessible to our friends, family and extended community in person and more often nowadays, online. Being able to make decisions on-the-go using relevant content that is accessible anytime, anywhere has assumed paramount importance among consumers. This Ericsson ConsumerLab Latin America study highlights the connectivity expectations of consumers as they go
In general, smartphones are becoming as popular as PCs in frequency of internet usage, although there is preference for smartphones in Mexico and PCs in Uruguay:
about their lives. The data presented in this report was gathered from a total of 9,812 face-to-face interviews and 1,027 online interviews conducted in 2014 across six countries in Latin America: Argentina, Bolivia, Uruguay, Brazil, El Salvador and Mexico. Interviews were conducted with consumers aged 15–69 years old. Overall, the data represents 189 million people living in Latin America.
Calls, messages and music are the most popular activities on mobile phones/smartphones, while social networking, internet browsing and on-line shopping are the top activities on PCs. Tablets are yet to pick up, but they are widely used for watching video content.

There are growing expectations on how interactivity will benefit society. The Internet of Things (IoT) will not only raise our quality of life, but above all, is a great business opportunity.
IoT will revolutionize our lives and business models. When smart products are connected, we can have a connected life that opens doors to new business opportunities and disruptive ideas involving things yet to be named, and markets yet to be discovered.
IoT will bring increased automation to everything that is connected through the internet. We are going from stovepipe solutions to a connected life. For instance, cars that communicate with each other and with other elements on the road can save lives and solve traffic congestion problems; a coffee machine and a car heater connected to your morning alarm can make life smoother.
To capture evolving business opportunities, it’s important to understand all the dimensions. And this is happening right now. In a few years, we will look back on all this and say, “that was when it all started.” Ericsson has brought together thought leaders to weigh in the Internet of Things ecosystem. So take a look into the future – a future that is already here!

strategies
With voice revenues under pressure and mobile data use soaring, operators have been forced to evolve both their networks and their business models. Some have been more successful than others—we call these operators “Frontrunners.” Between 2010 and 2014, Frontrunners enjoyed a 9.6% CAGR, while competitors in their markets achieved only 2.7%. To understand how these Frontrunners have consistently outpaced the competition, Ericsson, in collaboration with EY, embarked on an study where six common traits—which we call the Growth Codes—were defined: Gap Minding, Streetwise Metrics, Showcasing, Unboxing, Ecosystematic and Co-Partnering.
While the Frontrunners make use of all the Growth Codes, they tend to place a larger focus on a subset of these depending on the growth strategy they apply. In Growth Codes 2.0, we have investigated Frontrunners’ differentiation, customer, market and product scope, as well as their approaches to technology and operations, going deeper into their own competitive strategies to uncover three different paths to achieve profitable growth:
