An update on industry developments, market insights and country KPIs

The Region in Focus series provides an essential quarterly briefing on industry developments, market insights and country KPIs for mobile markets around the world. Improving connectivity in Sub-Saharan Africa will require a mix of solutions. Operators are increasingly collaborating on shared infrastructure to reduce costs, while private networks and satellite technology can also be leveraged to meet the connectivity needs of local users. Alongside these developments, the transition to 4G and 5G remains a priority across the region. However, South Africa stands out as the only country to announce plans to sunset both its 2G and 3G networks.
