tool goes here DUBLIN -- Dublin - Research and Markets (
http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/db3e0dd3/eritrea_telecoms) has announced the addition of the "Eritrea - Telecoms, Mobile and Internet Market - Overview and Statistics" report to their offering.
Under a state-owned monopoly on fixed and mobile services, Eritrea is the least developed telecommunications market in Africa with a mobile penetration of only around 5% in early 2012. Solely the internet service provider (ISP) sector is open to competition.
Growth in the mobile and internet sector is now accelerating as the national telco, the Eritrean Telecommunication Services Corporation (EriTel) is rolling out a third generation (3G) mobile network, but more investment into telecom infrastructure is needed. Foreign investment and the introduction of more competition would transform this virtually untapped market. The countrys economy is poised for a boom from mining which was recently opened to foreign participation, offering attractive incentives to investors.
Market highlights:
- The market with the highest growth potential in Africa;
- Growth in the mobile and internet sector is accelerating ahead of 3G launch;
- Market liberalisation and more investment in telecom infrastructure is needed;
- Emerging mining sector set to boost local economy.
