The Western Europe Telecommunications Market Factbook 2005Over 300 pages of the latest research on this The electronic communications market in western Europe continues to demonstrate significant growth in almost all sectors, particularly in the mobile communications and broadband/Internet markets. The combined value of the electronic communications services markets of 16 key western European countries is estimated to have reached €283,953 million in 2003, based on research carried out by International Telecoms Intelligence. This figure is expected to have grown to around €296,163 million by the end of 2004 and is forecast to rise again in 2005 to €308,602 million and to €320,946 million in 2006.

The mobile market has now matured, and several countries have passed saturation point (100%-plus penetration). Consequently, cellular operators are fighting over a diminishing number of potential new customers and have to think creatively when developing and pricing new service packages. The gloom that followed the expensive 3G licensing process has now largely dispersed, with regulatory authorities permitting network infrastructure sharing (lowering build-out costs) and the customer base is showing signs of being willing to migrate to the new services (approx. 5.3 million 3G customers at end-2004). DSL is behind the boom in the Internet market, with this technology accounting for 81% of all broadband connections in 2004. Incumbents are upgrading their core access networks to support DSL and new packet-switching platforms, enabled by IP technologies. Use this latest research to:
