"This culture of innovation is impelling startups to establish themselves in the ICT industry, while the enthusiastic adoption of end-to-end IoT solutions has encouraged telecommunications providers to introduce mobile app-based services. Successful mobile apps, such as ride hailing and mCommerce, are accelerating the overall revenue growth of the industry."
