The Anywhere Network

Throw out the rule book.

The Anywhere Network™ changes the game. Communications, connectivity, media and applications will all say goodbye to the status quo.

Technology and market innovation, coupled with pervasive standards such as Internet Protocol and media digitization will be the key ingredients in unprecedented disruption. These elements—which shift the boundaries of traditional business models, markets and perceived technology capabilities—will form the basis of the Anywhere Network.

Internet service providers of all stripes—those that changed things in the 1990s and those that are new-millennium revolutionaries—have debunked and disrupted long-held telecommunications business models. New models have accelerated internet application adoption. But even these relatively new business models are prone to disruption as seemingly embryonic players identify ways to capitalize on the connectivity revolution.

In the Anywhere Network era, investments—always important decisions—will become mission critical. Where will telecom service providers make those investments? And will they make the right ones? How will they support initiatives such as fixed-mobile convergence, the mobile internet and the shift toward a media-centric network? IMS is trumpeted as a cure-all. But can a system that has its roots in the legacy world really support the evolving needs of the Anywhere Network?

If you need to know the answers to those questions, and are interested in how the Anywhere Network will work with the Anywhere Enterprise™ and Anywhere Consumer™, you'll need to turn to Yankee Group for the answers. And there's no one better than Yankee Group to help you get the answers.
