The private 5G network market is anticipated to experience growth driven by the increasing adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT involves connecting physical objects equipped with sensors, software, and other technologies to exchange data with other devices and systems via the Internet. The growing demand for IoT stems from its ability to enhance efficiency and productivity, achieve cost savings, gain insights from data, enable automation and control, foster innovation, and provide a competitive edge. Private 5G networks harness IoT capabilities to support various applications, offering a secure, reliable, low-latency, high-speed network that facilitates advanced technologies to enhance serviceability and enable real-time deterministic use cases. For instance, according to Akamai Technologies Inc., a US-based internet company, IoT connections are projected to rise from 15.1 billion in 2021 to 23.3 billion by 2025, as reported in August 2022.

Key players in the private 5G network sector are concentrating on developing enhanced iterations of 5G, such as 5.5G, to cater to specific use case requirements. 5.5G, also referred to as 5G advanced, represents the next generation of 5G network technologies promising speeds ten times faster than current 5G networks. For example, Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd., a China-based provider of information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure and smart devices, unveiled eight 5.5G innovation practices in March 2024 to assist operators in deploying such networks across all frequency bands. These practices encompass crucial technological aspects such as antenna advancements, mmWave bandwidth, network intelligence within the RAN, and energy efficiency, enabling networks to deliver downlink speeds of 10 Gbps, a significant improvement over existing 5G networks.

In June 2023, Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, a US-based provider of intelligent solutions and cloud-based services, acquired Athonet for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition aims to broaden Hewlett-Packard Enterprise's edge-to-cloud and telecommunications portfolios to meet the rising demand for private networking and enterprise 5G. It will enable the integration of Athonet's technology into Hewlett-Packard Enterprise's existing CSP and Aruba networking enterprise offerings, establishing a comprehensive private networking portfolio. Athonet, headquartered in Italy, specializes in developing a connectivity platform for deploying LTE and 5G wireless networks for organizations.
