Qualcomm, enabler of telecom eco-system - Dadson

Senior Manager, Business Development and country manager for Qualcomm West Africa, Mr. Alex Dadson, has said that Qualcomm is enabler of the entire Information and Communication Technology (ICT) eco-system.

This is coming as Qualcomm is working at the quick charge for customer convenience to reduce the charge to 30 minutes and this will be introduced by next year.

“We are looking forward to the first operator to introduce this in the market here,” he said.

Addressing some senior ICT editors in Lagos, Wednesday, Dadson described Qualcomm as a telecom evangelist that builds processors across the telecommunications industry, for both Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) and Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA).

He cited Smartphones, for instance, saying that Qualcomm powers most of the multi-tasking devices making wave in the market today through a single processor.

“Qualcomm is a communications systems’ company built on innovation across entire wireless value chain based on the innovative technologies, standardization product and communication.
He went on to cite another instance, saying that a modem allows you to connect with the like of MTN, or any other telecom service providers.

Additionally, he revealed that Qualcomm spent a good sum on research and development (R&D).

“We spent a lot of money on R and D, and if you don't spend on R & D, you can't create. So if you don't spend you don't create,” he said.

Dadson stressed that latest research has revealed that subscribers will be delighted to pay for a good service, so Qualcomm is concerned in improving the quality of service in of its area of operations.

Insisting that for Qualcomm to do well, it “all the networks have to do well,” he said, explaining why Qualcomm has to assist the operators to do well.

“We know how to do well both GSM and CDMA,” he declared.

... Making SENSE of digital revolution!
