I think the whole session was managed in a hurry with no real discussion.
I have seen same panalists in other events ( like Momo) where lot more useful information cameout. There were many valid questions raised by panelists which were not followed up.
A perfect example of how not to moderate a panel discussion

We are talking about an industry that is just 5 years old so all the “gurus” including yours truly have just that much experience in this space.

Looking east or west doesnt help much as the structure of the business is unique in terms of price points, shares, technology capabilities, competition and unlocked handsets.

Its the wild west coupled with the fact that cost of entry is very low and the only gate keeper is the operator.

On different note, mobile marketing remains out of revenue sight for long.
Are there too many players for a small bucket?

Why don’t Guruji guys work on their search and get it right instead of teaching the world about advertisement . a Case of Premature Optimization by a funded startup ?

BTW its the same firm who funded Google and they let them improve search for 3 years without a apparent revenue model? what a mindset shift when it comes to Indian market .
