In contrast, this book makes a unique evaluation of a situation that prevails across a significant part of the industrial sector where involvement is subject to the acquisition of an operating licence. Taking telecommunications as an illustrative industry, with a particular focus on mobile telecommunications, the book focuses on the regulatory bodies that are tasked with licence issuance. New entry is usually attempted by a single company, often with existing links within the telecommunications sector, and usually within a single country. This book provides detailed accounts of both the individual countries and international operators in question, while also including a case study of CK Hutchinson which has been associated with multiple country entries. It also examines how disruptive activity is evolving from its roots in the mobile sector to encompass so-called "quad-play" which includes fixed-wire broadband and pay-TV.Disruptive Activity in a Regulated Industry: The Case of Telecommunications will appeal to postgraduate researchers and academics in the fields of economics, innovation, regulation, and governance. 606 $aTelecommunication$xTechnological innovations 606 $aDisruptive technologies 606 $aBusiness & Economics$xIndustries$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aBusiness strategy$2bicssc 615 0$aTelecommunication$xTechnological innovations. 615 0$aDisruptive technologies. 615 7$aBusiness & Economics$xIndustries$xGeneral. 615 7$aBusiness strategy. 676 $a338.064 700 $aCurwen$b Peter$0126628 702 $aWhalley$b Jason 702 $aVialle$b Pierre 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820181703321 996 $aDisruptive activity in a regulated industry$93996101 997 $aUNINA
