Yesterday during the ArmTech Congress 2011, Bruno Duthoit, Orange
Armenia CEO, made a presentation on the topic "Global Trends in
Telecommunications". The report presented not only the ecosystem of
this fast developing sector with its global players and alliances, but
also data on customer behaviour and usage in the world and in Armenia.
Notably, Bruno Duthoit presented the continuing trend of increased
mobile usage: the mobile data bandwidth developed with 77% growth in
the first half of 2011. On a worldwide scale, video streaming services
used 39% of mobile bandwidth, YouTube on its own representing 22% of
this bandwidth. The global average of monthly usage for each customer
downloading/uploading with a 3G modem is 2GB. It is interesting to
note that the usage of Orange customers in Armenia is almost 4 times
higher - 67,000 internet customers use traffic of 7-8GB per month
each with their Internet Now modems.
Explosion of data traffic will impact as well the business mix of
the operators - it is estimated that in only three years, 44% of an
operator's mobile revenues will be generated from mobile data, vs 22%
in 2006.
Commenting on journalists' questions on the words of Stephane Richard
regarding the possibility of Orange entering the fibre optic market in
Armenia, Bruno Duthoit clarified that the quote was about international
connectivity and the topic is still in the first phase of discussion
and needs to be evaluated.
