Thanks to evolving mobile technologies and 5G, private networks are making their way into the enterprise world, conferring numerous benefits such as greater control over processes and new use cases that rely on connected assets.
The market of private network vendors is growing beyond the core mobile ecosystem, as new companies are entering as competitors. With this market taking off, we focus on assessing success criteria for various types of ecosystem players, such as system integrators and network vendors.
According to our research, a majority of operators will offer private 5G before 2025. In this report, we present the state of play of private networks (4G and 5G) in terms of commercial activity, how relationships with other ecosystem players are developing and the revenue expectations for private networks. Going forward, operators need to pin down their private network strategies as soon as possible, and this report provides a guide for crafting such strategies, good practices to follow and pitfalls to avoid.
