In order to help those in the wireless space stay abreast of current trends and technologies, as well as to maximize their investment, iGR offers a Flexible Subscription Service called Wireless and Mobile Industries.

This service examines the mobile operator side of wireless communications. Although it is focused on the United States, this service does provide a global wireless perspective through a Worldwide Wireless Forecast. Updated twice a year, the forecast examines the development, appeal and adoption of various wireless technologies, services and applications in other regions of the world.

In 2005, iGR also conducted its first Mobile Media survey of consumers using a range of mobile media applications and services. This survey will be repeated in 2006.
