Actors within the telecommunication sector forecast 50 billion connected devices just within a couple of years. An increased connectivity for enhanced collaboration could be met by digital innovations that bring new values and opportunities for existing and new actor participation in the ecosystem see also chapter by Schmiedel and vom Brocke (2015.

During the late 70s and 80s, a significant proportion of the third level graduates from engineering and science courses emigrated to join multinationals in mainland Europe and North america.

China†s Huawei, for example, now competes for telecommunication contracts in Europe and the U s. Its related attempts to acquire U s. telecom companies have been rebuffed largely by federal regulators,

providing incentive to develop indigenous product development capabilities. Moreover, China is designing and building state-of-the-art next-generation nuclear power plants,
