A Look at the Latest Developments in the Information and Communications Technology Industry in Bulgaria.

DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c34120) has announced the addition of South East Europe ICT Monitoring Review Bulgaria to their offering. This publication is part of a series of reports, edited and published by us, under the title "SEE ICT Monitoring Review". The series aims at providing a regular overview of the developments that shape the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Sector in South-Eastern European (SEE) countries.

INA maintaining a firm focus on the promotion of greater regional development and cooperation, has continually supported technological development, endorsed harmonization of policies and legislation and facilitated the attraction of international investment in the region of South-eastern Europe, within its field of expertise. The "SEE ICT Monitoring Review" series intends to fill in the regional gap in ICT benchmarking and relevant statistical data publishing. INA's contribution in the SEE region is widely acknowledged for its objectivity, efficiency and accuracy, which will be further sustained through the regular publication of the "SEE ICT Monitoring Review". The reports are intended to provide a periodically updated source of information on the wider Telecommunications Market of SEE countries, assisting investment initiatives and regional development assessments.

The "SEE ICT Monitoring Review" is published monthly and each issue focuses on one particular SEE country, covering 9 countries in the SEE region in a circular manner. Each full circle comprises 10 individual reports instead of 9 (Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, FYROM, Moldova, Romania, Serbia, Montenegro and Turkey), since the state of Serbia and Montenegro is covered in two separate reports, one for each Republic, to account for their individual development process in the ICT Sector. Each report contains data on the country's Economic, Political and Regulatory Environment, the latest information on its Competitive ICT Environment, including telecom statistics based on Fixed, Mobile and Internet Market indicators, and the profiles of the Market's Key Players.

The current issue of the "SEE ICT Monitoring Review" is focused on the Republic of Bulgaria.
