Summary 'Botswana: Introduction of 4G and Implementation of National Broadband Strategy to Fuel Competition for Data Services,' a new Country Intelligence Report by Pyramid Research, offers a precise, incisive profile of Botswana's mobile and fixed telecommunications markets based on comprehensive proprietary data and insights from our research in the Botswana market. Published annually, this presentation-quality, executive-level report provides detailed analysis of the near-term opportunities, competitive dynamics and evolution of demand by service type and technology/platform across the fixed telephony, broadband, mobile and sectors, as well as a review of key regulatory trends. Key Findings - With revenue of $337m, the telecom services market in Botswana is one of the smallest in the AME region covered by Pyramid Research. Overall market revenue declined by 7.2% in US dollar terms from the previous year. - Pyramid Research expects to see overall service revenue grow at a 3.5% CAGR from 2014 to 2019. The fixed/mobile revenue split, already heavily weighted toward mobile, will shift even further toward mobile. - Adoption of 3G technologies is at 35.1% of the mobile subscription base. This is a reflection of the limited ways that Batswana people can connect to the Internet. Furthermore, we project this will grow as demand for data connectivity continues to increase and as content offerings improve.
