In this section, we will regularly bring you up
to date on topics related to IT, Telecom and Media.

Fiber To The Home!! |
 |
 |
|
|
The genie is out of the bottle and almost
everyone is of the opinion that ADSL and
cable are only “temporary” solutions,
and that real broadband (through fibre or
wireless) is only a matter of time. A presentation
(3.6 mb) is attached that will offer an
impression of the development of FTTH. The
study is quite broad, providing a sense
of the business models, markets, products
and services, technology and case studies.

Understanding Shareholder
Value |
 |
 |
|
|
Attached is a presentation from 2000, when
the bursting of the “bubble”
was already becoming apparent: untested
business models, irresponsible hyper-investments
in licenses, IT investments that didn’t
lead to returns on investment, and clients
that were refusing to join in the madness
of new technologies and services. The presentation
points out once again the significant elements
relevant to understand the creation of shareholder
value.

Flexible IT |
 |
 |
|
|
The IT sector will shrink considerably in
the next few years! Therefore, it is even
more important to point out the following
elements: Don’t expect a new technological
wave for 2005, the current market is more
or less saturated; price pressure through
over-capacity and competition from so-called
“offshore” companies; ongoing
concentration and limited IT budgets. Nevertheless,
the IT market will grow on average 3 to
5 percent. The “Flexible IT”
presentation provides a number of ideas
on how to make IT investments in the current
market despite the slowdown.

Digital Content Management |
 |
 |
|
|
In the Media and Entertainment sector, people
realise how important it is to protect content
and associated rights. It is a core activity
and powerfully summed up in the phrase “Content
is Key”. Due to new distribution channels
and convergence of existing technologies,
it is important that access to and re-use
of content is made more efficient, only...
it is a complex chain that needs to be set
up well with written agreements. In the
attached presentation, you will see all
facets of content management.

Telecom and Media Trends in een turbulente markt |
 |
 |
|
|
It has already been turbulent and heavy
weather in the telecom market for the past
3 years: little investment, the delay of
UMTS, weak balance sheets because of big
debts. Everything is focused on freeing
up as much cash as possible through disinvestments
and milking the existing infrastructure.
The cash position will determine the ability
to make (small) investments in the future.
The Media market is suffering under decreasing
advertising income and still hasn’t
found a good answer to the Internet phenomenon.
In both areas, focus is only on short-term
profits.
