The Mobile Economy Eurasia 2025
Governments in Eurasia are increasingly using mobile connectivity as a platform to transform their countries into modern digital economies. This shift is driven by the recognition that robust digital infrastructure, particularly mobile networks, improves public services and unlocks economic growth. Across the region, mobile connectivity is enabling citizens to engage with e-government systems and access education, healthcare and emergency services, even from remote and mountainous regions.
In 2024, mobile technologies and services generated 7.7% of GDP across Eurasia, a contribution that amounted to $220 billion of economic value. By 2030, the contribution of mobile technologies to economic output in the region is expected to rise to $270 billion, equivalent to 8.3% of GDP. 4G is the dominant mobile technology in Eurasia, accounting for around three quarters of mobile connections, but this is expected to peak in 2025, before gradually declining over the next few years as 5G deployments begin to gather speed.
