LTE Advanced<\/a> will provide some real solutions.<\/p>\nAdditionally, experts recognise that the increasing demand for bandwidth will further widening of the digital divide. High-speed broadband (HSBB), particularly wireless HSBB, will be essential for the anticipated services, but the costs of deploying the required infrastructure can be prohibitive. As a result, and noting that in most developing countries the mobile sector has singlehandedly driven telecommunications growth and take-up, the high costs of wireless HSBB may cause those countries to become even further marginalised.<\/p>\n
The level of innovation discussed by the panellists is being led by the G8 and even the wider the G20 community. Based on some of the observations made, even those countries have challenges that must be tackled in order for the projected technological developments to be successfully implemented. Similarly, we in the Caribbean (like other developing countries) must become even more aware of the difficulties we face, and hopefully better position ourselves to address them, to protect the future of our individual countries and the region as a whole.<\/p>\n
