Mobile for Development Utilities Services to Mobile Operators

Increasing the industry’s understanding of Mobile for Development Utilities Services

Our core services to the mobile industry include:

Feasibility Studies

At the request of our mobile operator members, we conduct in-depth studies to articulate the opportunity and provide tailored recommendations on the opportunity in their country of operation. Through a mixture of desk and field based research we analyse the local energy and water access market and identify how and where a mobile operator can leverage its presence to support improved service delivery to its mobile subscribers.

Vendor Catalogues

The Mobile for Development Utilities vendor catalogue is intended to be a useful starting point for mobile operators when making enquiries of potential water or energy service organisations to partner with. The catalogue is updated on an annual basis. If you are a vendor and would like to be featured in the catalogue please contact us at [email protected]

Working Groups

The Mobile for Development Utilities Working Group aims to bring together mobile operators, energy service providers and water service providers to accelerate innovation within the mobile industry. The Working Group is a forum which highlights initiatives and challenges as well as assessing available products and solutions with the view to consolidating industry insights and experiences.

As well as acting as a knowledge sharing platform and networking opportunity, the Working Group is also used to actively plan new strategies, approaches and deliverables for the Mobile for Development Utilities Programme.
