Women and Mobile - A Global Opportunity
In the past decade, mobile phones have become the most ubiquitous technology in the developing world, delivering access to advanced communications and information to many people for the first time. Yet millions of women are being left out of the benefits of mobile phone ownership, which has major implications given women's role in social and economic development. This mobile phone gender gap also represents significant revenue growth opportunities for mobile operators. Join us as we share the results of the first major study on mobiles and women in emerging markets.
