AB  - Since the beginning of the 21st century mobile  broadband  has diffused very rapidly in many countries around the world. This paper investigates to what extent   the   diffusion   of   mobile   broadband   has   impacted   economic development  in  terms  of  GDP.  The  results  show  that  there isa  significanteffect from mobile broadband on GDP both when mobile broadband is first introduced and  gradually as  mobile broadband diffuses  throughout different economies.  Based  on  a  two  stage  model  we  are  able  to  conclude  that  on average a 10 percent increase of mobile broadband adoption causes a 0.6–2.8 percent increase in economic growth depending on the model specifications.
