HeyStaks will attend Gitex Technology Week 2015 in Dubai to show how we can generate new revenues for mobile operators from subscriber web usage data

HeyStaks will be exhibiting at GITEX Technology Week in Dubai’s World Trade Centre from 18th-22nd October. GITEX is a great event for us as it has a strong mobile stream and is an opportunity to meet existing and potential customers. Generating new revenues from data is a hot topic for mobile, so our Intent Analytics offering is going to be very interesting to GITEX delegates.

The Middle East and Africa mobile markets are growing incredibly fast and progressive mobile operators based there are very keen to understand the massive revenue potential of technologies like HeyStaks. We have had strong traction there so far and look forward to a great event, meeting plenty of smart folks!

We will be in the Zabeel Gulfcomms Hall on Stand Z-J29 so if you’re attending please drop by.

Data Driven Advertising: MNO Revenue Simulation

by on

$17.96 billion advertisement revenues travelled through the worlds’ Mobile Networks in 2013; a figure that is forecasted to grow to $98 billion by 2018. In 2013 this created a cost for Mobile Network Operators and $18b revenue for Internet Publishers, OTT players and Ad networks.

This market is driven by Data, with in excess of 50% of advertising revenue now spent on acquiring data. However, Mobile Operators do not participate in this revenue, even though they have access to more data on the interests and behaviours of Internet users than OTT players and other ad revenue generators.

The HeyStaks platform creates an advertisement Data Asset for the MNO and provides the interfaces to allow the MNO monetize this asset in 3rd party ad networks, including that of our partner, Smartpipe.

This document introduces the HeyStaks & Smartpipe solution and describes how this solution will earn €3.2m sustainable Quarterly revenue for a 3m subscriber MNO. The factors that influence this revenue, including the parameters and usage numbers used in this revenue simulation are explained to allow you translate to your own context.
