Jonathan Ng
Based in Kuala Lumpur, Jonathan Ng will lead sales, business development and marketing activities for SLA Mobile in Asia Pacific. He has some fifteen years of senior business development experience in the telecommunications industry, covering all domains from fixed to mobile to enterprise business.
Commenting on Jonathan’s appointment, Nic Stirk, CEO of SLA Mobile commented, “Jonathan is a great addition to the team especially now that we’re really developing our market presence in the APAC region on the back of Alacrity – our key enabler of mobile and social network solutions across the global mobile industry. Jonathan’s experience across all facets of the mobile industry will help us position Alacrity as the enabler of choice in the region.”
According to Jonathan, the opportunities for SLA Mobile in the region look very positive. “It’s clear that operators now face a significant challenge in terms of maintaining customer relationships and revenue. Over the last two years the over-the-top players have challenged every aspect of the operators’ business model and time to market of services – and are diluting the relationship that operators have with their customers. However, the most progressive operators are sensing that there are opportunities in the market as well – leveraging the emerging social channel, offering new, richer services and offering merchant services that take advantage of the trust that mobile customers have invested in their service providers. I’m confident that we have a compelling story to tell operators in the region.”
Jonathan started his career in the telecommunications industry working with a mobile operator before moving across to work with several major integrators and software vendors. His regional responsibilities have focused on VAS infrastructure, service delivery platforms, specialised telecom software/systems and FMC applications.
