5G Technologies Global Market Report 2024

The 5g technologies market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $17.24 billion in 2023 to $28.33 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 64.4%. Historical growth can be attributed to several factors, including the surge in data volume generation, the adoption of 5G networks, a rising number of internet users, and robust economic growth in emerging markets.

The 5g technologies market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $148.66 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 51.3%. Anticipated growth is expected due to government initiatives, the expansion of smart homes, an increased number of IoT devices, and rising investments. Key trends in this period involve the utilization of machine learning technology, emphasis on artificial intelligence, introduction of innovative products, and fostering partnerships and collaborations.

The projected growth of the 5G technologies market is anticipated to receive substantial support from the rapid expansion of smart homes in the forecast period. A smart home, characterized by internet-connected devices facilitating remote monitoring and management of appliances and systems, stands as a driving force for the adoption of 5G technologies. The application of 5G in smart homes extends to both home security and automation, meeting the escalating demand for technologies that enable remote access to homes. CITyFiED, a Spain-based project funded by the European Union’s Seventh Program, predicts that the number of smart homes in Europe will reach 84 million by 2022, with Germany, the UK, and France spearheading market growth. As an example, the smart home penetration rate in the UK is projected to achieve 63% by 2025. Consequently, the proliferation of smart homes is poised to serve as a key driver for the 5G technologies market.

The growth trajectory of the 5G technologies market in the forecast period is expected to be further propelled by favorable government initiatives in developed countries. Governments worldwide are directing their focus towards the development of 5G infrastructure. Notably, in October 2022, the Prime Minister of India initiated the 5G telephony initiative, promising ultra-high-speed internet on mobile phones and signaling the onset of a transformative era with abundant opportunities. Similarly, in March 2022, the Minister of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) in China outlined plans to install over two million 5G base stations by the end of 2022. This ambitious initiative aims to expand the application of information and communication technology (ICT) for the convenience of people's lives. The increasing momentum of government initiatives is poised to be a significant contributing factor to the growth of the 5G technologies market.

A burgeoning trend in the 5G technologies market is the increasing prevalence of collaborations between companies operating in the 5G technology space. This trend is primarily driven by a shared commitment to fortify 5G infrastructure and foster innovative platforms through the pooling of resources, knowledge, technology, and cost-sharing. Collaborative efforts prove advantageous, particularly in scenarios involving expiring licenses, a lack of technological know-how, and navigating a stringent regulatory environment. A notable instance is the partnership formed in January 2022 between Vodafone, a UK-based telecommunications company, and Ciena, a US-based telecommunications company, focusing on 5G solutions. This collaboration enables Vi to optimize fiber capacity and enhance network efficiencies for 5G. Similarly, in October 2022, Ericsson, a US-based 5G technology company, joined forces with Reliance JioInfocomm Ltd., an India-based telecommunications company, to establish India's inaugural 5G standalone network.

The regulatory landscape shaping the 5G technologies market is predominantly governed by the European Electronic Communications Code (EECC) within the European Union. In March 2022, the EU implemented regulations aimed at expediting 5G network installations by streamlining the deployment of small cell antennas crucial for the last mile of 5G networks. These regulations define the physical and technical characteristics of small cells, impose strict limits on their size and power, exempt them from planning permits (with retained national oversight), and address their appearance to reduce visibility. Regulations of this nature stand to benefit 5G technology companies, providing momentum to the growth of the 5G technologies market.

In June 2022, Qualcomm, a semiconductor company based in the US, acquired Cellwize Wireless Technologies Pte. Ltd., a telecommunications service provider headquartered in Singapore, for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition aims to bolster Qualcomm Technologies’ 5G infrastructure solutions, facilitating the digital transformation of industries, empowering the connected intelligent edge, and bolstering the growth of the cloud economy.
