Strategies for mobiles and smartphones - James CridlandRolf Brandrud
The use of smart phones has exploded. But is anyone really listening to radio on them? How do people use their mobiles for radio - and what can we learn from broadcasters who pioneer in this area?
Can the European radio industry influence the mobile phones manufacturers to include a generic receiver for digital radio in all phones – the “Eurochip”?
And how will devices and mobile services develop over the coming years?

The explosion of mobile internet usage has enabled the mobile advertising opportunity, but as most advertising planners know, truly engaging advertising doesn’t work in silos, it works together.
The aim of this report is to show how mobile media usage works in conjunction with other media (in particular TV), and how this creates new opportunities for advertisers to influence consumers at the point of purchase (m-commerce).
To provide a global perspective the initial section of this report looks into data across: UK, US, Brazil, Indonesia, Egypt, Singapore, India, South Africa and Qatar. The second section takes a more qualitative look into the day in the life of a mobile consumer in the UK, using mobile diaries to track behaviour.
The Webinar organized by Endeavour - The Mobility Company, held on July 28, 2010 explored the increasing use in healthcare and its future.

Overview of the research project entitled 'Changing Workplaces: Implications for Cybersecurity', conducted by the GCSCC in collaboration with GrapeData.
A presentation underpinning a discussion with participants in the wide-area network (WAN) summit held on 26 September 2022 in London at the QEII. It is based on initial descriptive results of a 2022 global survey of over 7,000 internet users on their workplaces prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, during the pandemic, and currently. Questions also address the cybersecurity issues they faced during each stage of the pandemic. The rise of working from home and hybrid working are clear along with declines in office work and the use of decentralised offices. The survey was designed by our research team at the Global Centre for Cybersecurity Capacity Building at the University of Oxford in collaboration with Grape Data, a new and innovative survey research organisation, which fielded the survey.

constraining freedom of expression or privacy
online in the MENA region?
5. Methodology

the Middle East and North Africa conducted in two
phases, from July through September 2012, fielded
by Toluna.*
• Merged with online survey of Internet users in
selected nations world-wide from July through

• Users are divided over the conditions under which
governments should have any role in monitoring online
behavior.
• Users express guarded support for monitoring use, but not
tracking their own online activity.
• Users exhibit uncertainty over who is collecting what
personal information about them online.
• Many users are worried about putting personal information
online.
