The Worldwide Market for Mobile Learning Products and Services: 2010-2015 Forecast and Analysis

A Nascent Market Surges - The Emergence of Lucrative Mobile Learning Value Added Services (VAS)

Pricing:
An organizational site license (multiple sites and unlimited users) can be purchased for US$4,825.00.

Overview:

The worldwide market for Mobile Learning products and services reached $3.2 Billion in 2010. The five-year compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is 22.7% and revenues will reach $9.1 billion by 2015.

The country-by-country dynamics of the worldwide market are changing fast. In the 2010 market, the US was the top Mobile Learning buying country, followed by Japan, South Korea, the UK, China, and Taiwan. By 2015, the top buying countries will be the US, China, India, Japan, Indonesia, and Brazil, respectively.

The countries with the highest growth rates (all over 60%) are China, India, and Indonesia. The countries with the lowest growth rates (all under 5%) are Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, the three most mature Mobile Learning markets on the planet.

It has only become possible to speak about a worldwide Mobile Learning market in the last 18 months. Prior to 2010, Mobile Learning was heavily concentrated in just a handful of countries, mostly with developed economies.

Mobile Learning has spread like wildfire across the planet primarily due to the launch of dozens of successful Mobile Learning value-added service (VAS) products sold directly to consumers by the telecom network operators. The content is usually delivered via Short Message Service (SMS) or Interactive Voice Response (IVR). The operators are initially targeting developing economies for the most part and we can now see the contours of a cohesive worldwide Mobile Learning market.

These Mobile Learning VAS offerings in developing economies have relatively low subscription prices, yet they have millions of customers. Consequently, the revenues are quite high. This is a classic "rags to riches" story with suppliers collectively generating hundreds of millions of dollars in new revenue in just the last 18 months.

The telecoms depend on third-party commercial suppliers for content, custom content development services, tools, and platforms. They often pay subject matter experts to provide tutoring to subscribers, so the revenue opportunities are significant across the supply chain. Analyses of the Mobile Learning VAS supply chains, high-demand content types, revenue-sharing models, and pricing models are included in this report.

The revenues in the worldwide Mobile Learning market are generated by the sales of packaged content and edugames, custom content development services, SaaS tools and platforms, installed authoring tools, installed platforms, dedicated personal learning devices, and, most recently, Mobile Learning VAS.

Pricing:
An organizational site license (multiple sites and unlimited users) can be purchased for US$4,825.00.

NOTE: Individual tables with corresponding sections from this report are available as Revenues Snapshots.

Overview:

The US healthcare market for Mobile Learning products and services climbed to $104.44 million in 2009. Over the forecast period (2009-2014), overall demand will grow by a healthy 24% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) and revenues will reach $306.67 million by 2014.

The changing demographics of healthcare consumers coupled with an accelerating need among clinical workers to achieve greater levels of efficiency, reduce medical errors, and improve patient outcomes creates a favorable business environment for Mobile Learning suppliers.

The market for Mobile Learning in the healthcare segment is opaque, as it includes portions of other learning technology buyer segments such as associations, NGOs, and non-profits; corporations and businesses; and higher education. The answer to the question, "Who is the buyer?" is not easily discerned. This report addresses that question, as well as "What do buyers want?"

Demand will remain robust throughout the forecast period. Sales of healthcare Mobile Learning packaged applications and content will outpace sales of both Mobile Learning services and technology products. The growth in content comes from a wide variety of companies.

Consumers and healthcare buyers, who increased spending on Mobile Learning even at the height of the recession, are driving the current overall US Mobile Learning market. Since the recession began, the healthcare segment has added over 730,000 jobs. According to a May 2010 report by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the healthcare segment has been adding an average of 19,700 jobs a month over the last 2 years.

Essentially, the healthcare Mobile Learning market has been immune from the recession. Ambient Insight expects this trend to continue throughout the forecast period.
