Summary
This study places the key digital technologies which are being adopted into a broad yet deep perspective.
The choice of the most promising infrastructure and services in the period ahead is based on a diversity of sources. They range from existing third-party analysis and the informed views of IDATE’s technology analysts to many interviews conducted among the technology expert and innovator community.
The study offers an analysis on how these infrastructure and services could affect business ecosystems and market uptakes.
- “Infrastructure” covers five domains: 5G, 6G, Open RAN, Fixed gigabit networks and private investments in infrastructure.
- “Services” covers five domains: metaverse, future of tech, cybersecurity, smart mobility and future of work.
To deepen the perspective even further, the report includes technological forecasts from other IDATE studies, in particular 5G and FTTx World Markets.
The Services section outlines the maturity and adoption levels of technologies.
