Cybermedia to Launch Voice & Data Connect, a Media Brand

New Delhi, Delhi, India , 2006-10-27

CyberMedia, South Asia’s largest specialty media house, will launch Voice&Data; Connect, a magazine for the telecom channels space in December. Voice&Data; Connect will be a tabloid format fortnightly, covering Broadband, fixed-line, mobile, strategic and regulatory news for the telecom channel partners. It would reach out to the telecom channels marketplace – the distributors, dealers, retailers, resellers, service providers, mobile manufacturers and broadband providers.

Mr. Pradeep Gupta, Chairman & Managing Director, CyberMedia commented, “With rapid consumerism sweeping the country, India has emerged as one of the fastest growing telecom marketplace, it’s the second largest mobile handset market with over 100 million mobile subscribers, 48 million fixed line subscribers and 9 lakh broadband subscribers. However, there is no single relevant media to meet the information needs of the telecom channels. CyberMedia being the leading specialty media house has always taken the initiative in addressing the needs of such segments and we are leaders in the IT and Telecom media space, hence a clear expertise in launching such a publication.” The brand name Voice&Data; Connect is a logical extension of Voice&Data;, the CyberMedia monthly magazine for the telecom industry and large communication users.

The content would be a mix of national and regional content with up to date breaking news stories, to keep abreast of possible business opportunities in the region. There would be a focus on regulatory changes in each individual region, product launches, reviews, trends and more.” The 36 page Voice&Data; Connect would have an initial print run of 30,000 and be priced at Rs.15/- per copy.
