31 Michigan and Mobile Technology What role does mobile / wireless technology play in Michigan, and what will its impact be on the state s businesses and economy? Mobile Technology in Michigan

32 The future of Mobile in Michigan The mobile / wireless industry has a very high Jobs Creation Factor of 3.9; this factor is one of very few comparable to the state s manufacturing industry. This means: 1 mobile job created = 3.9 additional non-mobile jobs Our Growth Projections 9,250 new mobile / wireless industry jobs in Michigan by 2015 Resulting in over 35,000 non-mobile-industry jobs in the state, and over $1.7 billion in resident earnings We will increase market penetration to the equivalent of that in the U.S., 103.9% currently, and higher as the industry grows (and wireless access is added throughout the state) Mobile Technology in Michigan

33 Studies Show: Why Mobile is Important in Michigan For every 1 mobile industry job created in Michigan, 3.9 additional non-mobile industry jobs are created in Michigan per MEDC Michigan s mobile / wireless industry currently employs over 47,000; we seek to increase that by 9,250 new jobs by 2015 The average compensation for a mobile technology-related position in Michigan is over $63,000 per MEDC This provides an equivalent cost-of-living to compensation of $145,000 in the Silicon Valley The automotive/transport sector accounts for the most M2M device connections today; obviously important given Michigan s role as the world s auto capitol If the public sector were to fully utilize smart traffic mobile technology, fuel consumption on urban roadways could be cut by as much as 20%; again, impactful in helping Michigan s auto industry to grow, and thereby substantially impacting the State s economy in a positive manner Nielsen Mobile, 2008; ABI Research, Michigan Economic Development Corporation Mobile Technology in Michigan

34 Why Michigan Can Lead in Mobile Development Areas of opportunity for Michigan: tele-matics machine-2-machine / mobile-2-machine mhealth Mobile business apps (as opposed to consumer-oriented apps) Mobile Technology in Michigan

35 Why is Mobile Technology an Opportunity for Michigan?
