Dow Jones Description
OMA is the leading industry forum for developing market driven, interoperable mobile service enablers. OMA was formed in June 2002 by nearly 200 companies including the world s leading mobile operators, device and network suppliers, information technology companies and content and service providers. The fact that the whole value chain is represented in OMA marks a change in the way specifications for mobile services are done. Rather than keeping the traditional approach of organizing activities around "technology silos", with different standards and specifications bodies representing different mobile technologies, working independently, OMA is aiming to consolidate into one organization all specification activities in the service enabler space.
