User profile
According to the AHCIET Study “Challenge 2020: Investing to close the Digital Divide in Latin America”, mobile broadband penetration in countries such as Chile is 78% and in Peru it is 45%. However, the user profile indicates that, despite having sufficient access to smartphones and devices with WiFi, a high percentage of the population do not have any as-sociated data plans so WiFi becomes the ideal channel of communication for these users.
