Middle East Telecoms – what will 5G bring?

The Middle East Telecoms market has evolved hugely over the past 20 years. With all the six GCC countries moving from a monopoly to a competitive landscape, all of them area seeing an unprecedented desire for speed and connectivity. With growing populations and a thirst for data, the regions appetite for multiple devices and sim cards is unrivalled.

How will the region keep up?

Rafiah Ibrahim, Head of Ericsson Middle East and East Africa, said, “Our latest Mobility Report reflects how digital technology is fast becoming part of everyday’ s life in region Middle East and North East Africa. It highlights the rapid uptake of LTE deployments across the region, paving the way for 5G where we are expecting 20 million subscriptions by 2022. Today, we are working together with our partners to pave the way for 5G across the region and we are already seeing a great interest amongst operators launching 5G plug-ins on existing 4G networks.”

We live in an era of constantly expanding connectivity

Business interactions and personal communications occur at lightning speed all over the world thanks in great part to mobile phones and other wireless devices. However with growing possibilities come growing demands. Employers expect consistent and prompt communication. Families share high-definition videos in addition to simple pictures. 4G networks labor in the effort to keep up with the increasing needs of the cutting edge consumer.

Thankfully, the mobile data industry, especially in the Middle East, is working hard to keep up with these needs. Etisalat CEO, Saleh Abdullah Al Abdooli, says they are paving the way for a 3 billion AED investment in 2017 alone into fibre optics and infrastructure.

Nokia, Huawei and Qualcomm want to put the Middle East on a global stage for launch of 5G services, stressing the need for close partnerships across the ecosystem and improved access to spectrum to ensure the region can compete with Asia and US and deploy networks by 2020.

Nokia’s Noel Kirkadly says “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. What brought us 2G, 3G and 4G was a collaborative approach across the industry to standardise solutions,” Huawei’s Heng also advised operators to customise their plans for each network launch. “Build a local ecosystem, you need a partner in the Middle East and local region to build the ecosystem, and build the business model – you need to discuss with partners.”

Enter the 5G network

So named because it is the 5th generation of wireless connection technology, 5G promises upgrades over its predecessor by every metric. Some benefits include:

Years of technological advance and the fourth generation’s implementation of the LTE standard.
LTE, or long term evolution, was previously locked in competition with WiMax to become the variant of choice for cellular networks.
With the victory of LTE comes a razor-sharp focus for future progress.
Increased download speed to a factor of ten over 4G.

How will the introduction of 5G represent that progress?

Firstly and primarily through speed. 4G LTE networks are limited to about 1 gigabit of data download per second at best. This rate is adequate for streaming audio and downloading pictures but struggles with high-definition videos and other high intensity tasks.

Secondly, 5G LTE networks will increase download speeds by a factor of ten, making even the most arduous of online pursuits a breeze. There are other benefits such as low latency, supports the IOT and major global carriers and vendors are invested in it.

The new network will also decrease latency, which is the delay before any data transfer begins. In other words, transfers will be exceedingly fast from start to finish.

Major cell providers are already testing 5G in select locations.

This technology is not likely to be commonly available until 2020, but the next generation of connectivity is at our door.

The Middle East as a whole is very lucky in that is does not have years of old legacy systems to upgrade to ensure it keeps pace with the times and the future looks bright for mobile consumers in this region.

What do you think will happen in the next 3 – 5 years?

Middle East Telecoms – what will 5G bring?

Hospitality Boom – is Expo to soon?

Healthcare Technology – what is being done?

Hospitality Boom – is Expo to soon?

Will the UAE make the rush needed for Expo 2020.

Hospitality Boom – is Expo to soon?

With crude oil becoming more and more an unreliable gross domestic product for the Middle East, Gulf States such as the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia are focused on creating one of the grandest hospitality venues on the globe.

The UAE (180 projects) and Saudi Arabia (134 projects) remain the most active hotel construction hotspots in the region. The busiest year for hotel openings leading up to 2020 is forecast to be 2017 with 189 projects and 58,527 rooms.

“That is a lot of bedrooms, bathrooms, windows, doors, terraces, restaurants, pools, spas, gyms, and much more to be fit out and equipped over the next five years,” said Gary Williams, Event Director of The Hotel Show Dubai, which took place between the 17-19 September 2016 at the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC).

“According to a forecast by Alpen Capital, hotel-room supply in the UAE will increase by 5.3% annually during the period 2012-2016, boosting volume from 96,992 hotel rooms to 125,383 by 2016. This level of growth will be necessary if the country is to deal with the anticipated influx of tourists.”

Creg Oats of Skift.com, said there are five primary reasons for the Middle East’s hospitality boom and subsequent drive for their Expo 2020:

Population effect – The steady rise in expats living and working in the region. “By 2030, China’s middle class will comprise 70% of its total population, while the comparable figure for India will be 50%,” quotes the report. “The impact on the GCC travel and tourism industry will be huge.”

Beyond Oil – The Gulf States have to start thinking beyond “black gold,” and with no other natural resources of much value beyond oil, they decided to pump over $300 billion and growing into the hospitality business. The UAE has also begun a program of waiving the 10% municipality fee for new hotels opening before 2017.

Infrastructure – UAE is single-handedly affecting global logistics: “‘Dubai is trying to become the node between Asia and South America, which is affecting the future of logistics and mobility on a global scale,’ says Professor Dr. Stefan Walter, managing director of the House of Logistics & Mobility (HOLM) at Frankfurt International Airport.”

Gateway – Abu Dhabi is becoming an international gateway. “The GCC is fast emerging as the new gateway to Africa, the last frontier in terms of natural resources such as oil, gas, uranium, and other resources—all of which will be in high demand across the world. With the added advantage of historic, economic, cultural, and strategic bonds with the African countries, the trade potential between the two continents is immense. Dubai alone witnessed a 700% increase in its trade with Africa over the last decade to USD 25 billion. Direct flights between the two regions have driven rapid growth in passenger traffic as well as cargo volumes, resulting in higher re-exports”

Social media and information – The global super information highway is making it easier for people around the world to research, book, and pay for their vacations and getaways online. “The Amadeus Future of Travel study ends with a look at the power of social media and trends relating to connected, personalized and sustainable travel. Without mentioning the viral #MyDubai account on Instagram, presently with 79,000 followers, the reports states Instagram is popular in the GCC mostly in the UAE and Saudi Arabia. On the photo-sharing platform, #JumeirahGroup and #VisitAbuDhabi are in the 8,000 follower range; #Dubai has 423,000 followers.”

Opportunities exist for boutique hotels and independent operators

Even with all the above benefits, the success comes with problems that the UAE and Saudi Arabia must overcome. Abdul Basit of the Khaleej Times writes:

“Over the past 18 months, the Middle East has experienced a number of geopolitical and economic challenges, creating disruption to feeder markets and adding further pressure to a year which was characterized by terror attacks, currency fluctuations and the lowest oil prices the world has seen in over a decade.” (2016)

A big question on everyone’s mind this year is where staff will come from in the future. As the region continues to struggle in the absence of a local talent pool, hoteliers in particular will be forced to consider options. Merger and acquisition activity will continue in the wake of high-profile hotelier deals, such as FRHI’s buy-over by AccorHotels at the end of 2015. The big three Gulf airlines, Emirates, Etihad and Qatar Airways, will continue to explore partnership opportunities with European and Asian airlines.

Looking closely at the forecasts of global financial, business, and tourism analysts, the Middle East is poised to take over the global hospitality market. With the coming Expo 2020 as Dubai’s premier, expect things to get even grander in the years, and especially decades, to come.

Healthcare Technology – what is being done?

Cyber Security – is the Middle East Safe?

Healthcare Demand – can we keep up?

Healthcare Technology – what is being done?

We are living in an era where technology is driving change at a rapid rate.

Healthcare Technology – what is being done?

As the world’s thirst for speed and instant access to information thrives, all industries are playing catch up to revolutionise the way they operate and make changes. Healthcare is one industry that can hugely benefits from the explosion of digital.

Innovation

2017 will see a number of innovations in healthcare that will set to improve life for human beings all across the globe. Now more than ever people and companies are implementing innovative ways to meet the growing healthcare gap. New technologies, such as digitisation of patient records, increase productivity in the healthcare industry, but also promote the growth of the tech industry as new companies enter Middle Eastern markets to offer digital solutions. Using healthcare demand to diversify economies of the Middle East in this way has shown great promise.

The global population is experiencing longer life expectancy and therefore demanding better healthcare which is in turn putting a strain on healthcare providers to seek more effective solutions to better address their needs.

The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates are oil-producing giants experiencing population growth at a predicted rate of about 3.0 percent, with that number expected to compound annually.

A decrease in infant mortality rates and increased life expectancy has led to an ever-growing elderly population that requires adequate medical care. Although these states are experiencing rapid growth, they have been unsuccessful at attracting the specialists needed to treat the increased number of people with diabetes, obesity, and heart diseases.

A recent report done by the Deloitte Centre for Health Solutions offers new insights to current trends in healthcare technology. The information is pertinent to the healthcare industry in general.

The research sample

The research reveals a number of key trends:

Mobile devices are more readily available.
An influx of healthcare apps are offering patients a sense of independence.
Patients are able to not only prevent the formation and spread of diseases themselves, but they also are able to avoid using medical services that might be unnecessary.

Healthcare providers also take advantage of this interconnectivity, sharing their expertise and gathering opinions from their peers in other countries through the web. Further, as long as patient information remains in safe digital systems, these documents can be universally accessed by a network of healthcare providers. This lowers barriers between doctors and their patients, as they both spend less time filling out paperwork and more time discussing health matters in person.

Technology

The evolution of new technology providers specific to the healthcare sector have allowed companies to provide data specific to every patient. Frost & Sullivan’s Visionary Healthcare research has identified several technologies that are most likely to impact healthcare paradigms by 2025. Some of the ways this is being utilised are:

Wearable medical sensors – Using wearable technology to monitor patients with great depth is a large piece of the healthcare market at the moment. Medical sensors allow healthcare providers to track diseases in non-invasive ways and pharmaceutical companies are understanding the value of smart pills that help track the effects of medication.

Smartwatches and activity trackers – these are increasingly in demand and becoming more sophisticated. With our increasingly busy lives centred around desk jobs, they even remind us how often we should stand up and will alert us of bedtime. There is speculation that we may soon have such devices implanted into our bodies for full integration. For now, such technologies exist in less invasive capacities, in the form of hearing aids and heart monitors for example.

Biosensors and trackers – Technology-enabled activity trackers, monitors, and sensors incorporated into clothing, accessories, and devices that allow consumers and clinicians to easily monitor health.

Convenient care – Retail clinics and urgent care centers that provide more convenient and lower-cost care to patients for a number of health issues.

Research must continue to drive change

There is a large degree of skepticism however as with monitoring devices comes a ton of data that is often hard to sift through or understand for patients as well as healthcare providers. With many apps seeking to profit in the healthcare industry, it is difficult to know which are most effective until industry regulators set protocols. People are still devising what the best way to manage use of new technologies might be.

Above all, research must continue as we try to make better decisions about what solutions will work best for providers and patients. Providers must use sound judgment as the data streams flow to help people decide what kinds of information is useful in different situations. As healthcare networks introduce new technologies, it is imperative that they allow people time to adapt to them.

Finally, healthcare providers must not lose sight of the value of face-to-face conversation for better understanding their patients. Technology ought to enhance patient experience. Therefore, healthcare providers should constantly take patient feedback into consideration when offering them advice on their healthcare concerns.

Hospitality Boom – is Expo to soon?

Cyber Security – is the Middle East Safe?

Healthcare Demand – can we keep up?

Population growth is at his highest rate in centuries, how will the Middle East cope?

Healthcare Demand – can we keep up?

Having lived in Dubai for over 6 years I am constantly amazed by the drive, ambition and execution of projects announced. With Dubai’s 2013 – 2025 healthcare initiative, driven by Essa Al Maidoor, Executive Director DHA, and EXPO 2020 the country is well on the way to receive 3 new hospitals and 40 new healthcare centres.

The demand for healthcare in the Middle East has been driven from a number of drivers:

Improvements in quality of life have driven healthcare demand in the Middle East

Population growth in the GCC at a predicated rate of 3% in 2017, with this number looking to grow annually

A decrease in infant mortality rates and increased life expectancy has led to an ever-growing elderly population that requires adequate medical care

Historical issues in attracting the specialists needed to treat the increased number of people with diabetes, obesity, and heart diseases

“It’s expected that the dip in health care spending in the GCC in 2015 is temporary. Spending growth is anticipated to resume in 2016, topping four percent, and rise to over six percent a year in 2017 and 2018,” said Abdelhamid Suboh, Partner and Life Sciences and Health Care industry leader at Deloitte Middle East. “Driven by population expansion and rising wealth, growth in Asia and the Middle East markets will be particularly rapid as public and private health care systems develop in some countries; in addition, the trend towards universal health care is likely to be a growth driver in numerous markets. However, the pressure to reduce costs, increase efficiency, and demonstrate value will continue to intensify.”

Now more than ever people and companies are implementing innovative ways to meet the growing healthcare gap. New technologies, such as digitization of patient records, increase productivity in the healthcare industry and the growth of the tech industry as new companies enter Middle Eastern markets to offer digital solutions. This is all in turn leading to strong diversification within the economy in healthcare.

With the global markets drive towards technology and the pending introduction of 5G networks, innovation will soon be more prevalent within the medical sector. The US is the driving force behind innovation and change in this field, Mobile Future estimates patient monitoring via mobile devices will save the United States $36 billion in healthcare costs by 2018 and it’s evident how that will play out in real-world scenarios. The Middle East has a rapidly growing population, projected at over 3% per annum, so it is only a matter of time before this level of innovation will be available in the Middle East.

How to further build healthcare systems in the Middle East

Surrounding all the topics and discussions, and one that is frequently debated, is how to complete the above? A solution is to foster the private healthcare sector. This of course calls for many great changes to current healthcare systems as with many industries in the Middle East, the healthcare industry remains heavily funded and operated by national governments.

Not only do GCC governments spend a great deal of money on their healthcare systems, but they also give a higher percentage of funding to public facilities than they do to private facilities, stated a report by Ardent Consulting back in 2015. Since public healthcare is free for nationals and offered at a nice discount for expatriates, private facilitates not subsidized by the government usually face low patient visitation and low revenue. To further complicate matters for the private sector, GCC governments reimburse citizens for receiving healthcare abroad, rather than promoting local healthcare solutions.

The solution?

Although the above elements present a number of challenges, the also come with a great deal of potential opportunities to bolster the private sector and the healthcare industry as a whole. Being that the public sector is currently favoured by the government, it would benefit the entire system to have a regulatory body that can set unbiased quality standards for both private and public healthcare. Besides the public and private sector being treated equally under a central agency, governments can quit the practice of signing over massive checks to public healthcare facilities regardless of performance.

Moving government policy towards offering adequate funding for all healthcare choices, whether they are public or private will help the industry growth to meet current demand. Despite all of the challenges faced by Middle Eastern governments, technological and systematic changes are increasing access to quality healthcare all over the area.

Hospitality Boom – is Expo to soon?

Healthcare Technology – what is being done?

Cyber Security – is the Middle East Safe?

The evolution of multiple technologies is having an impact on all industries and countries.

Cyber Security – is the Middle East Safe?

Marked by cycles of instability followed by sporadic bursts of growth, the Middle East is an interesting case study for discussions on cyber security in the modern era. The Middle East faces unique challenges and the region’s experiences highlight some of what is most perplexing in the realm of cyber security today.

While companies are investing in security technology and protection such as cyber insurance, they are often not supported by the people, processes and governance required to provide real security creating a “false sense of security”, according to Mike Maddison, PwC Middle East partner, cyber services leader and head of risk assurance services.

According to a report by PWC, businesses in the Middle East suffered larger losses than other regions in the world last year due to cyber incidents, with 85% respondents in the region comparing to a global average of 79%. Around 18% of respondents in the region have experienced more than 5,000 attacks, compared to a global average of only 9% ranking the Middle East higher than any other region.

Many organisations in the Middle East approach cyber security solely as a technology problem and that is “simply not enough,” said Wael Fattouh, PwC Middle East Partner, Risk Assurance Services. “Security is an end-to-end issue and ignoring any part of the chain can compromise the effectiveness of the implemented measures,” he explains. “Another common misconception is when organisations think that compliance with security standards is the same thing as being secure, which is not accurate. Compliance helps an organisation implement good practices, but they need to fit into a frame that works for the unique nature of the organisation to be effective at securing it.”

Through increasing digitization, the international community is closer than ever before.

The Internet of Things (IOT) offers more possibilities for cyber criminals to compromise vital systems of information. Without measures in place to protect people’s privacy, cyber security threats can become difficult to manage. Latin America and Asia offer clear examples to the Middle East of the evolution of cyber security threats on the international level.

A window into the global problem and lessons learnt?

Latin America is fighting rising popularity in hacktivism, hacking done in support of political causes like presidential elections. Brazil, which boasts the largest number of Latin American Internet users, suffers from widespread threats due to infectious computer software like malware and ransomware, the latter of which holds a victim’s data hostage in exchange for money.

As places in Asia and elsewhere continue to employ NFC payment solutions, cyber theft, continues to affect more unsuspecting consumers. India, a country with massive populations of Internet citizens, has faced cycles of cyber terrorism and outright cyber warfare in past years. Due to this, cyber-espionage is an increasingly popular method for national governments to gain information about other countries under the banner of protecting their own security.

Cyber security is often a key issue from a business standpoint, as in the Sony hack of 2014, when self-proclaimed “Guardians of Peace” revealed the personal information of the company’s employees.

The Middle East – what is going on?

To make matters more urgent for the Middle East, a recent PwC survey reveals that Middle Eastern businesses are disproportionately more likely to suffer from cyber-attacks than their global counterparts. According to the report, Middle Eastern businesses often rely on quick fixes, rather than consistent cyber security awareness programs. Rather than cyber security management being a top down approach, the onus falls to IT departments to protect the company’s assets, instead of the entire digital community of the firm.

With this reliance on IT, businesses are often blind to the fact that cyber security must be woven into the company’s overall approach to information security. Dr. Walid Tohme, a Vice President and Partner at Strategy & revealed a similar national security climateas they warn that the growing risk of cyber-attacks from the recent trend of digitization must be met with a more holistic and proactive approach to national security.

Through legislature aimed to protect consumers and prosecute cyber criminals, as well as placing power into the hands of existing agencies to address cyber threats, Middle Eastern governments have tried to integrate cyber security into their national agendas. These things, in addition to national incident response protocols and public awareness campaigns, have laid a foundation for cyber security in the Middle East.

What can be done?

For impactful change to occur, Middle Eastern governments must have a process that fully covers the below:

1) Dedicates itself to serving the nation’s cyber security agenda.

2) Identifies strengths and weaknesses in their strategies to achieve secure digitization.

3) Ultimately takes ownership in times of widespread digital crisis.

Current reactive solutions to cyber threats will put the area in constant recovery mode. Information sharing and monitoring are key to reversing this vulnerability and creating a comprehensive strategy that will move the area from a state of mere defense to preventing and fighting back against attacks.

The wider and more far reaching question is one of how this effects all companies, people and everyday life within the region. What are you doing to protect your current business against cybercrime?

The Death of RPO Recruitment in the Middle East?

RPO recruitment is dead in the Middle East, we discuss the alternatives.

The death of RPO recruitment in the Middle East

Human Resources and Employment Recruitment are two of the most discussed issues of any growing business. But what is truly the best solution for your organization? Here at MENA Solutions we are striving to provide clients with a new alternative, Project Recruitment. For those not familiar to recruitment, below we will cover a few of the available solutions and take an honest and open minded look at their pros and cons:

Executive Search

Executive Search is the Rolls Royce of the recruitment world. Often very time consuming and expensive. They charge an upfront fee of $10,000 to $25,000 to begin the initial search and once a candidate is found and hired, they can require the additional balance of the future employee’s first year salary as compensation. You would typically only use search firms if you have a very specific brief, the need for confidentiality or it is a C Suite role

Pros

Executive Search firms are very methodical in searching for just the right candidate for their clients.
You can expect only individuals with the perfect match to be presented.

Cons

The first pro on this list is actually going to be the first con on this list. Unless you are a hospital looking for a new neurological surgeon, or a law firm seeking a trial court superstar, then chances are you are not going to want to pay the price of a used car just to find a forklift operator.
The recruiting process is long. Some firms out there claim they will find you a list of candidates within 30 days. But the majority of time it can be longer, depending upon certain variables.

Contingent Recruitment

The general idea with Contingency Recruitment is the same as its counterpart above. The slight difference is that the client does not pay an upfront fee, but rather pays between 15-25% of the hired candidate’s first year salary.

Pros

You don’t pay anything in the beginning – no initial fee.
If you shop around carefully, read company reviews, and choose solid companies with already good reputations, you can find really good candidates.

Cons

Contingency firms tend to have many clients so you will have to compete for good talent
You need to spend time with the agency to make sure they understand your culture and this involves investment on your behalf.

Recruitment Process Outsourcing

This form of recruitment is said to be more of a long term partner of your business. In this, they act as an extension of your HR team in managing the whole recruitment process and providing an all-round solution.

Pros

Recruitment Process Outsourcing is an ever acting extension of your company’s employment process.
Pricing is far more flexible, and most firms will work with you to find a payment program that best fits your needs.

Cons

There is always a risk when dealing with recruitment outsourcing versus in-house hiring. If you spend money and time working with a Recruitment Process Outsourcing company, only to find out that the recruit is not a good fit for your organization, you just wasted a lot of valuable resources.
If you do more in depth research, you will find out that in many cases plain old contingency recruitment agencies simply rebranded themselves as being RPO when in fact they are contingency recruitment wrapped in prettier packaging.

Project Recruitment – the right solution for the region

The benefit of a project recruitment solution is the client can take the best parts of all three traditional methods and put it together in a tailored solution.

Pros

Flexible pricing with low engagement fees.
Increased success rate on matching and CV delivery due to one dedicated account manager.
Reduction in overall project costing based on volume and economies of scale.
Reduced time to hire based as project team will scale up and down due to demand.

Summary and solutions

When looking at all the options available, no system is perfect. Whether you keep it old-school with an HR team, or you choose to take the outsourcing journey, the decision to use one of the above options really comes down to your budgetary parameters and what suits you best. Here at MENA Solutions we are aiming to bring clients a tailored solution that takes the best parts from each solution.

We are aiming to bridge the gap between full scale RPO and Project Recruitment to ensure clients’ needs are met, whilst paying attention to the time sensitive and cost sensitivities of the Middle East region.
