It is essential reading for researchers studying the smartphone sector and mobile technologies in general.' -Ram Mudambi, Professor of Strategy, Temple University, US 'This book guides the reader to learn about the golden rules for a smartphone start-up to leverage market opportunities and lead new markets. A must-read for all entrepreneurs, not only those in the mobile industry.' -Monica Basso, Research Vice President, Gartner This book provides detailed examination of start-ups which entered the smartphone industry following the revolution triggered by Apple with its iPhone in 2007.
