Abstract

It has long been recognized that there is a close link between the development of a country’s telecommunications capability and its economic growth (Carr 1989; Stimson et al. 2006). The percentage of the world’s population covered by a mobile cellular signal has increased from 61 % in 2003 to 90 % in 2009, and nearly 80 % of inhabitants were mobile subscribers in 2010 (ITU 2011). However, only a small number of studies (Pisano 1989; More and McGrath 1999; Qiu 2005; Peng 2007) have focused upon collaborations in the telecommunication market, which has grown very rapidly and contributed dramatically to economic growth. As for the mobile telecommunication (wireless) market the number of research studies on collaborations is even less.
