The Swedish survey will be implemented in September and will be overseen by the department of technology management and economics at Chalmers University of Technology, with co-supervision of Swedish PhD students by Professor Madden.

Professor Madden says the final survey component will be led by the Graduate School of Information and Telecommunications Studies at Waseda University, Japan and funded by Japanese mobile telephone provider NTT DoCoMo.

Professor Madden also said that at the August telecommunications conference  in Perth, links would be established through the signing of Memorandums of Understanding between Curtin’s Communication Economics and Electronic Markets research centre, International Cooperation Study Centre (Thammasat University, Thailand), the National Institute for Development Administration, Thailand and the Department of Technology, Management and Economics at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden
