The primary audience for this report is managers involved with the highest levels of the strategic planning process and consultants who help their clients with this task. The user will not only benefit from the hundreds of hours that went into the methodology and its application, but also from its alternative perspective on strategic planning relating to broadband equipment and services in China. As the editor of this report, I am drawing on a methodology developed at INSEAD, an international business school (www.insead.edu). For any given industry or sector, including broadband equipment and services, the methodology decomposes a country’s strategic potential along three key dimensions: (1) latent demand, (2) micro-accessibility, and (3) macro-accessibility. A country may have very high latent demand, yet have low accessibility, making it a less attractive market than many smaller potential countries having higher levels of accessibility. With this perspective, this report provides both a micro and a macro strategic profile of broadband equipment and services in China. It does so by compiling published information that directly relates to latent demand and accessibility, either at the micro or macro level. The reader new to China can quickly understand where China fits into a firm’s strategic perspective. In Chapter 2, the report investigates latent demand and micro-accessibility for broadband equipment and services in China. The report then considers macro-accessibility in China. Macro-accessibility is a general evaluation of investment and business conditions in China.
