TOMI IN FORECASTING
Tomi T
Ahonen has been a thought-leader to the mobile forecasting and statistics
industry for over 15 years, chairing its major forecasting conferences and
offering his forecasts and insights. Tomi is considered the most accurate
forecaster of the mobile industry and is quoted regularly in major press from
the Wall Street Journal and Financial Times on to specialist telecoms press. Tomi
Ahonen was the first industry expert to forecast that mobile subscriptions
would pass fixed landlines, that mobile penetration rates would exceed human
populations, that it would become commonplace for mass market consumers to have
two or more mobile subscriptions, that mobile consumers would be happy to carry
two phones, that SMS text messaging would grow to become the biggest data
service on the planet, etc.
Tomi keeps
offering updates and forecasts to the industry and even very recently, has
provided guidance to the industry such as being the most accurate forecaster to
predict last February that Nokia's smartphone market share would collapse to
single digits by year end. Tomi's February forecast for end-of-year Q4 market
share for Nokia smartphones at 8% (it ended up being 8.6%). No other industry
expert was quoted with a market share target for Nokia into the single digits,
many felt Nokia's smartphone market share would fall from the 29% it had been,
to about 20%. Similarly Tomi Ahonen has been the most accurate forecaster of
the market performance of the iPhone, of touch-screen phones, and was the
world's first forecaster to accurately call it in mid 2011, that Samsung would
pass Nokia in total handset sales in the spring of 2012.
Tomi T
Ahonen was rated the most influential expert in mobile by Forbes in January 2012. Tomi is the most
published author in mobile. The bestselling author of twelve mobile telecoms
books several of which have gone into reprints and translated to several
languages, Tomi is already referenced in books by over 120 other authors and
considered the foremost industry expert on the statistics for the industry. The
former Nokia executive lectures at Oxford University's short courses on the
future of mobile telecoms, is often seen on TV and has been quoted in the press
over 300 times in publications such as Wall
Street Journal, Business Week, Financial Times, the Economist, etc.,
as well as countless telecoms industry periodicals. Here is the link to his
