1. Tata Communications has been an early adopter of IPv6, with its acquired companies Teleglobe and Tyco providing some of the first IPv6 connections in the late 1990s.
2. IPv6 adoption has not taken off as quickly as expected, with only minimal IPv6 traffic currently, but Tata Communications believes early IPv6 support provides them an advantage over competitors.
3. Further catalysts are still needed for widespread IPv6 adoption, such as improved DNS and network management support, as well as more IPv6-enabled applications and content. The growth of mobile internet may be the trigger that drives more rapid IPv6 deployment.

21. IPv6 and the mobile internet: joined at the hip for the next growth phase CORPORATE The future growth of the Internet lies in the hands of mobile phone users, not computers, … … while the Internet population has exploded from 50 million to 1.1 billion since 1997, it still only reaches a sixth of the world's population. the jump to the next (sixth) version of the Internet Protocol IPv6 is "desperately needed if we are to reach the world's 4 billion people, who are now untouched by the Net." Vint Cerf in Bangalore, February 20 th 2007, as reported by Pronetworks and The Hindu

I think it means that we need to increase the emphasis on the value we would provide in the IPX value chain equation. “Local” (integrated) connectivity to a truly global IPX infrastructure with QoS catered to each application – HUGE value . Hosting of key applications “in the middle” (in your “Service Hub” on slide 11) that, without them, the international applications would break down (ENUM, LNP, WRG, etc.) – HUGE value . Promote the idea that very few players can solve all this globally. Its not easy at all. We can – yada yada yada…
