GSMA Mobile World Live interviews AEC Advisory on high stakes Thai 1.8GHz spectrum auction

17th November 2015. Singapore.  

The GSMA's Mobile World Live industry recently interviewed AEC Advisory's Managing Director for his views on Thailand's high stakes 1.8GHz spectrum auction held on 13th November 2015, and the next round soon to come on 15th December 2015 for the 900MHz band.  Mr Arena was quoted as saying "The more than $1 billion AIS and True Move each paid last week for their 4G spectrum (15MHz each in the 1.8GHz band) is roughly double that paid for 2.1GHz spectrum almost exactly three years ago in Thailand, and on the high end of recent benchmarks for the band.  This will have both an immediate and ongoing drag on the operators’ profitability over the next 18 years, given amortisation over the length of their licence".

AEC Advisory Managing Director to Chair MVNOs Asia 2015 Industry Summit

13 October 2015. Bangkok, Thailand.  

AEC Advisory's Managing Director, was invited to Chair this year's 5th Annual Informa MVNOs Asia 2015 Industry Summit held at the Conrad Hotel Ballroom in Bangkok, Thailand over 13-14 October 2015.  Mr Arena was also a speaker and panel moderator at the event providing insights for investors, aspiring local MVNOs and regionally expanding MVNOs on emerging business models and key success factors for this emerging industry sub-sector.  
​Speaking at the event, Mr Arena said "I am a believer in the MVNO business model and in my work across Asia I see this sub-sector’s emergence and success vary quite a lot.  What is clear is that much of the success of MVNOs hinges on support from both Commercial and Regulatory standpoints, and MVNOs themselves need to understand that in most Asian markets they cannot be mass market generalists but require an ecosystem and/or affinity group to leverage for sustainability.  New acquisition business models such as Agency or Multi-Level-Marketing are also key to providing reach while reducing acquisition costs and churn."
