Although at a slower rate since our last Meetup, European towerco penetration has been growing, with 28.6% of the continent’s towers being MNO-captive at present.
The continent’s Digital Decade targets for Gigabit connectivity in every EU home by 2030 and covering areas with different population density bring significant build-to-suit and infill connectivity contracts fuelling much-needed organic tower growth. In addtion, various national and pan-European 5G connectivity projects will also contribute to the towerco market's furher development with new players, relationships and business models popping up.
