Fixed Broadband Market Trends and Opportunities in Europe - 2020

Summary

Fixed Broadband Market Trends and Opportunities in Europe - 2020, a new Telecom Insider Report by the publisher, provides an executive-level overview of the fixed broadband market in Europe. It delivers quantitative and qualitative insights into the fixed market, analyzing key trends and growth drivers in the region.

Key Highlights

• Europe as a region is largely an advanced fixed broadband market.
• Governments and regulators are working in tandem to drive and develop fixed broadband infrastructure and adoption, especially in regards to FTTH/B - with major high-speed broadband coverage targets set across Europe.
• The European Commission (EC) has a vision to transform Europe into a gigabit society and to become a digital single market. The EC’s targets include a 100Mbps broadband coverage across all member states by 2025. Often, member states opt mainly for FTTH/B to achieve these targets. Major government-backed national broadband plans will drive fiber coverage, faster Internet speeds, boost competition, and should lead to increased fixed broadband adoption.
• The COVID-19 crisis has also proved the importance of high-speed, reliable broadband access and has prompted a number of telcos to accelerate their FTTH/B rollouts; also boosting the M&As and joint venture activity in this space.
• Fixed broadband development also provides more service bundling and monetization opportunities for telcos - e.g., OTT video, cloud gaming, home office solutions (e.g., UC&C), and smart home services.

Ongoing structural/functional separation trends in Europe, aimed at creating fiber wholesalers offering open access fiber for the acceleration of fiber deployments, will present new opportunities for investors, telcos, and infrastructure vendors across the region.
