An MVNO, or mobile virtual network operator, is a telecommunications service provider that does not own the infrastructure or radio spectrum required for network operation. An MVNO leases network capacity from an existing mobile network operator (MNO) to offer services such as voice, data, and messaging to its customers. Increasing smartphone penetration leading to higher demand for affordable mobile services, as well as advancements in wireless technology, enabling better connectivity at lower costs, has accelerated the need for MVNOs. Limitations in the MVNO market mainly involve heavy dependence on host network operators, which may impact pricing flexibility and overall control over service quality. Diversification into verticals such as IoT or M2M solutions could provide promising revenue streams for MVNOs. Collaborations with digital content platforms can enable them to leverage existing user bases while expanding their product portfolio with value-added services. MVNOs can focus on offering differentiated products based on customer preferences, such as customized data plans or loyalty programs. Additionally, strategic partnerships between MVNOs and MNOs (Mobile Network Operators) help streamline operations while delivering enhanced offerings through mutually beneficial agreements.
