CONTINUOUS INNOVATION BASED ON CUSTOMER NEEDS
On 22 December 2007, the “EI Gordo” lottery TV show was broadcast as scheduled
in Spain. Through a handset, Mario, who was on vacation, enjoyed the live moment
simultaneously with countless other mobile TV spectators. In the past, when traveling,
Mario could only discover the drawing result afterwards from Internet news. “It would
be a shame not to have been able to watch the live draw especially if I won a prize
myself!”
Mario is one of 20 million fans of “EI Gordo” in Spain. Previously, to watch the live
draw, acionados had to stay in front of the TV at home. In 2007, things became
different. Irrespective of location, lottery fans can now witness the exciting moment
as it happens.
Freedom from TV at home occurred through the new mobile TV service provided
by Vodafone. 3G subscribers to Vodafone Live! were offered access to 10 digital
TV channels via their handsets. Services on TV and mobile phones continue to
converge.
Through groundbreaking technology, Huawei helped Vodafone Spain increase its
network performance by over 30% in total, paving the way for the launch of the
new mobile TV service. Around the globe, Huawei is enabling many operators with
similarly innovative solutions to capture convergence business opportunities and to
provide consistently enhanced communication experiences for end users.
