Global Market Facts and Figures

Tourism is one of the world's largest industries, generating an estimated 11% of global Gross Domestic Product (GDP), employing 200 million people and transporting nearly 700 million international travelers per year – a figure that is expected to double by 2020.
Developing countries currently have only a minority share of the international tourism market (approximately 30%), but this is growing. International tourism arrivals in developing countries have grown by an average of 9.5% per year since 1990, compared to 4.6% growth worldwide.
The tourism industry makes important contributions to the economies of developing countries, particularly to foreign exchange earnings, employment, and GDP.

Peter Michaels, CEO of Hop-on stated, "Hop-on phones have 911 services tied into the local carriers in Mexico and the United States. The tourism industry has been tarnished due to a few isolated incidents targeted toward tourists. Travelers to Mexico will have a local Mexican wireless number with 911 services attached to it." The peace of mind this brings travelers is enormous, he said. "Now we also have the ability to directly market products and services to a customer who we know is a tourist. We know our customers are looking for tourism marketing."

Hop-on is exploiting "first mover" advantages to bring new and innovative products to Global and Mexican markets.

Michaels also said, "During an emergency, locating a person needing assistance quickly and accurately, regardless of where they are, what type of mobile device they are using, what country they are in, or even whether they are outside or indoors is absolutely critical. Private industry and governments around the world are considering the implementation of a universal emergency services system that quickly provides the location of wireless callers to first responders. In the United States, this system, called Enhanced 911 (E-911) is already in place. Hop-on uses two proven and tested technologies for Emergency Call Location Solutions - AGPS and U-TDOA. Hop-on looks to be a leader in establishing their 911-E Technology and services as they can be deployed worldwide.
