This IDC study features our outlook for the overall telecommunications marketplace in sub-Saharan Africa region in 2010. IDC's regional analysts were polled for their take on what the coming year holds for the industry, and their views were sieved to a core set of 10 predictions that outline key growth opportunities for 2010.

"Despite the poor economic conditions that prevailed in 2009, the African telecommunications market will move another step forward in 2010 with further regulatory developments that are already gradually opening up the market for increased competition and advanced services. In 2010, various operators will be keen to leverage opportunities brought on by unified licensing, consolidating their operations and resuming pent-up infrastructure investment. Developments in broadband connectivity, triggered by various submarine systems due to go live in 2010, will heavily impact the wider market, although last-mile access and affordability will be key challenges that need to be addressed. Mobile broadband will prevail as fixed-line services continue down the road to a gradual but inevitable demise." - Regional Manager Francis Hook, IDC East Africa
