Top 10 Wireless Solutions Companies   |  March 31, 2009  

Reaching new heights in 2008, the Top 10 Wireless Solutions Companies realized consolidated revenues of $8.64 billion, a remarkable increase of 82 per cent compared to 2007, as the average firm on this year’s list increased revenues by 30 per cent year-over-year. Illustrating their tremendous potential, wireless solutions companies continued to increase their Top 250 revenue share, accounting for five, six and 12 per cent in 2006, 2007 and 2008, respectively.

Maintaining its number one position for the eighth consecutive year, Research In Motion (RIM) distanced itself from the rest of the pack in 2008 by nearly doubling its revenues, with 98 per cent year-over-year growth. Contributing 85 per cent of the Top 10 revenues and 83 per cent of the category revenues, RIM is the undeniable leader in the wireless solutions category.

Analyzing the Top 10 list without RIM confirms that it is not the only catalyst of growth. Revenue growth among the nine remaining companies was 25 per cent, with five firms achieving more than 30 per cent growth in 2008. DragonWave, the lone newcomer this year, led with 67 per cent growth.
