New Business Opportunities schoolEACH STUDENTONE COMPUTER

Firstly seen as a cost and a burden by Mobile Operators (MO), the

e.escola program has become a challenge, and above all a new

business

Nowadays, it is seen also by MO as an investment to expand their

businesses, since a new market and new needs are been created

The e.escola program not only brings new customers to the

operators, but also increases clients’ loyalty and operators

recognition in the market as partners for the future
