The growth of the infrastructure software market is anticipated to be driven by the increasing demand for 5G connectivity. 5G, the fifth generation of networks, facilitates a new type of network connecting virtually everyone and everything, including machines, objects, and devices. The infrastructure software industry is expected to benefit from the emergence of new applications and services enabled by 5G, particularly as the demand for 5G connections continues to grow. The rising popularity of cloud computing further contributes to the demand for 5G. A report published by the GSM Association (GSMA) in September 2022 revealed that over 640 million 5G connections were recorded in 2022, with an anticipated total of 2 billion connections by 2025. Thus, the adoption of 5G technology serves as a catalyst for the growth of the infrastructure software market.

The growth of the infrastructure software market is further propelled by the increasing trend of digital transformation. Digital transformation involves the strategic integration of digital technologies, processes, and capabilities across organizations, leading to fundamental changes in operations and business models. Infrastructure software solutions play a crucial role in optimizing operations, enhancing scalability, and improving overall efficiency in the dynamic digital landscape. The growing reliance on cloud computing, cybersecurity measures, and data management underscores the demand for sophisticated infrastructure software. According to the Digitalisation in Europe 2021-2022 report, based on data from the European Investment Bank, 46% of EU firms acknowledged taking measures to become more digital, compared to 58% of US businesses. Additionally, the proportion of businesses using advanced digital technology is higher in the United States (66%) than in the European Union (61%). Consequently, the increasing digital transformation is a driving force for the infrastructure software market.
