The two-day WiMAX Forum Asia Congress is set to bring together some of the largest and most powerful Asian WiMAX players like UQ Communications, Yota, Korea Telecom, V Max Telecom as well as large global players like Clearwire. Some of the eminent speakers at this years’ event include, Takashi Tanaka, President UQ Communications Inc, Japan, Peter Yen, President, Tatung Infocomm Co. Ltd, Taiwan, Dennis Sverdlov, CEO, Yota, Russia, Andrew Gan, Regional Marketing Manager, WiMAX Business Unit, Fujitsu Micorelectronics Pacific Asia Ltd. and Raman Subbaiah, General Manager, Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd.

The event will provide the industry with an excellent opportunity to learn from the experiences of operators who have successfully deployed mobile broadband around the world.

According to WiMAX Forum research, of the 470 global WiMAX deployments more than 70 are from Asia-Pacific. These deployments already provide coverage to over 205 million people and continue to rapidly expand. The Asia telecom market is expected to constitute a major part of the global WiMAX market, with almost half of the new users to be added in India which explains the critical role India plays in the Asia region. The burgeoning Indian market is expected to illustrate the power of WiMAX technology with over 27.5 million WiMAX users estimated by 2012. WiMAX has already established itself in the 3.5 GHz band with deployments in every region. WiMAX is being deployed in the 2.5 GHz in Asian countries such as the Japan, Taiwan and Russia with new 2.5 GHz WiMAX spectrum allocations expected soon. WiMAX has been deployed in the 2.3 GHz in South Korea, Malaysia and Singapore with future deployments anticipated in Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia.
