Abstract
The Virtual Centre of Excellence in Mobile and Personal Communications-Mobile VCE-is a not-for-profit company established as a joint initiative of the mobile communications industry and leading research universities, with support from the UK government. It is an acknowledged success of the government´s Foresight exercise. Its innovative approach provides companies with a highly cost-leveraged means of accessing the best of the academic base to undertake international-level, industry-led research to underpin the future development of wireless communications as it converges with the Internet and broadcast industries
