Japan's telecom markets are among the world's most open and competitive

We build your business in Japan's telecom world
Several years ago NTT had the monopoly for national communications, while KDD (which has merged into KDDI) had the monopoly for international traffic. After a period of deregulation and some consolidation a large number of companies compete in one of the most competitive and most exciting telecom markets. The following picture gives a bird's view on Japan's telecom markets - this picture is by no means complete. Yahoo is attacking the broad band internet access market and the voice phone market, wireless hotspots are starting up all over Japan to compete with the three 3G networks of DoCoMo, AU/KDDI and Vodafone/J-Phone.
