๐There are more rural internet users are there (227 mn vs 205 mn urban - 2019 stat) and growing faster.
๐More young internet enabled audience is in rural than urban which would drive growth. (Between 12-30 yrs of age, rural % is higher).
๐ As bulk of this internet enablement is via #mobile broadband; learning is to keep devices/#smart tech dependent on mobile broadband vs fixed ones as of today. This will enable higher penetration vs just wired broadband homes which is miniscule.
๐The Rural opportunity brings in avenues of #content being '#local' and in 'local language'. For eg, #OTT players would churn more such content to expand the market.
๐ Internet enabling devices (mobile/#PC/tablets) need to offer affordable solutions for viewing content (big screens, lower computing may be). Laptops to evolve against smartphones or else not capture this market.
๐ #IoT currently is in a frivolous space, it needs to become 'necessary' rather than 'good to have' in consumer's lives. From a voice enabled music player to an enabler of education(kids) or of necessacity (older folks).
Have u seen more such opportunities?
