Europe is the most highly penetrated mobile region in the world. As of year-end 2017, 85% of the European population – 465 million people – subscribed to mobile services just above North America and CIS. The total addressable market for the region’s mobile operators is approaching saturation point, with the largest mobile markets – France and the UK – accounting for most of the new unique subscribers.

GSMA Intelligence has launched ‘The Mobile Economy: Europe 2018′ highlights how mobile is driving growth and innovation across European countries.

Top Line Findings of the 2018 Mobile Economy in Europe:

• Coverage of 4G services passed 97% of the population at the end of 2017 and will grow to 98% by 2025.
• Looking out to 2025, Europe’s mobile revenue is forecast to be roughly stable across many markets (143 billion in 2017 vs. 144 in 2018).
• Total (cellular and non-cellular) IoT connections in Europe will increase almost three-fold between 2017 and 2025, reaching 4.9 billion, from 1.7 billion in 2017.
