The fixed mobile convergence market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $6.67 billion in 2024 to $7.65 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the up-gradation in fixed and wireless networks, the rise of 5G technology, the increased demand for a seamless transition in calls, and the demand for unified communication.
The fixed mobile convergence market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $13.11 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing demand for unified communication, the adoption of fixed mobile convergence technology, the growing demand for integrated services, the increasing use of digital devices, and rising remote work. Major trends in the forecast period include technological advancements, multi-access edge computing (MEC), 5G integration, enterprise mobility solutions, IoT and smart devices.
The rapid adoption of 5G technology is expected to drive the growth of the fixed mobile convergence market in the coming years. 5G represents the fifth generation of cellular network technology, offering faster data speeds, lower latency, and increased capacity compared to previous 4G networks. The demand for 5G is driven by factors such as rising data traffic, enhanced capacity and connectivity, and improved mobile broadband services. The high bandwidth and seamless connectivity of 5G enable the smooth integration of fixed and mobile networks, allowing uninterrupted handovers between Wi-Fi and cellular networks. This fosters the growth of fixed mobile convergence by providing faster speeds and reliable connections for users across various devices and locations. For example, according to 5G Americas in April 2023, global 5G wireless connections increased by 76% from the end of 2021 to the end of 2022, reaching 1.05 billion connections and projected to reach 5.9 billion connections by the end of 2027. Hence, the surge in 5G technology is propelling the expansion of the fixed mobile convergence market.
Leading companies in the fixed mobile convergence market are concentrating on developing advanced solutions such as cloud-based unified communications platforms to enhance communication and collaboration for businesses. A cloud-based unified communication platform integrates fixed-line and mobile communication services into a unified platform hosted in the cloud. This platform enables seamless access to a variety of communication tools and services across fixed and mobile networks. For instance, Vodafone Idea Limited partnered with RingCentral Inc. to launch Vodafone Business Unified Communications (UC) in Italy in April 2023. This unified communications solution supports hybrid working by providing analytics and reporting tools for businesses to analyze usage, evaluate call quality, and improve performance. It is accessible from any internet-connected device without the need for additional applications, making it suitable for remote or hybrid teams while offering enterprise-grade security and compliance with data regulations.
