Please sign in or register for a free public account to access this report.
Private 5G is growing at an impressive rate as enterprises are increasingly engaging ecosystem players, including telcos and systems integrators, to set up private wireless networks. Industry attention is increasingly focused on filling the gaps in the private wireless proposition, and in this sense, this is also a maturing industry segment. In 2024, the private network opportunity will become increasingly attractive while momentum continues to build, with multiple vendors further increasing their investments. But the value points are shifting away from radios and mobile cores, which are now table stakes, towards the distributed edge and seamless orchestration of workloads across enterprise IT/OT environments.
