Mobile communication, Broadband and the Internet have changed the way we  interact and communicate with each other.  Innovative new services and application are helping us in our everyday lives and make it easier to stay in touch with our family and friends. Huge amounts of information are flowing around the globe in seconds, enabling good ideas to spread fast and innovation to prosper everywhere.
