US Businesses Expected To Spend 11 Billion Dollars on Mobile Apps By 2012
Scottsdale AZ (SPX) Sep 09, 2008 According to new research from CompassIntelligence.com, businesses in the U.S. will spend roughly $11.6 billion on mobile applications by 2012. This year U.S. businesses are expected to spend an estimated $4.9 billion on mobile applications. These applications include mobile and wireless-based custom-coded and packaged applications, including productivity, contact management, GPS/Navigation, Email, security, file sharing, collaboration and others. This market is poised for double-digit annual growth over the next 5 years, driven by the growth in remote and telecommuting employees, the movement in "open Mobile Devices," and the explosion of new and emerging free and fee-based mobile applications available for download.
