\n\nIt was only a matter of time before China became the world\u2019s largest mobile market. Now it can\u2019t be ignored. This year it surpassed the United States for iOS and Android activations and will soon hit over 500 million smartphones according to InMobi. The numbers are staggering and as a mobile entrepreneur or business looking to bring new revenue in through mobile, China needs to be on your (very) short list of places to be.
\n\nThe challenges are many but the barriers have been dropping at an incredible rate \u2013 think back to a short 10 years ago and what it would have taken to enter into this market. Now, the app stores have paved the way for local distribution and payment and the population is the most connected on the planet. An eager market of hundreds of millions waiting for your product or service.
\n\nPiyush Shah knows something about this opportunity \u2013 he is the VP & GM, Developer Platform and Performance Advertising for InMobi, a quickly-emerging global company focused on mobile-first customer engagement platforms. The data they collect and analyze form the basis for the reports and insights they provide to the community.
