UTStarcom has launched its India 'Internet Protocol Partner Program' focused on R&D to provide a single-window solution to telecom operators for providing better value added services to subscribers.

The company is working with more than 20 partners in developing these applications. Applications in the immediate pipeline include tele-education, gaming, social networking, gaming, widgets, advertising, messaging convergence, and contextual information.

Vijay Yadav, Vice President and Managing Director of UTStarcom's South Asia operations says, "By building an ecosystem for IPTV, we aim to aid faster adoption of this revolutionary technology among Indian audiences by helping telecom operators create a compelling pull factor built on technologically robust and tested applications."

Four innovative applications have already been tested on UTStarcom's technology platform and will soon be rolled out for service providers. Some of the IPTV services being developed or evaluated under the program include on-demand education or learning, TV travel booking, movie ticket booking, interactive maps, hospitality solutions, and many more.
