ARLINGTON, Va.—The Telecommunications Industry Association has released a third-quarter supplement to its 2001 Multimedia Telecommunications Market Review and Forecast.
The supplement explores policies, technologies and market drivers for domestic and international communications markets and outlines how slow growth in the first three quarters of 2001, coupled with the events of September 11, will change public and private sector spending and impact the telecommunications industry.
The report predicts that some sectors of the telecommunications industry will experience growth and that the demand for wireless services will increase. Meanwhile, the report predicts the telecommunications equipment market, including network equipment and facilities, to post decreases this year and only modest advances in the near future.
