Global Communications Providers (CP) revenue is expected to reach $5.6 trillion by 2030, growing at a 6.2% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2025, according to Omdia’s latest global forecast for CP revenue and capital expenditure (capex). “This steady growth is driven by technology innovation, infrastructure expansion, and strategic investment in 6G and AI.
“Telecom operators are entering a new phase of strategic investment,” said Dario Talmesio, Research Director at Omdia.
The report shows that while traditional telecom revenue will grow modestly at 2.7% CAGR, the technology segment, led by hyperscale platforms such as Apple, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, and Microsoft, is set to expand at a robust 9.4% CAGR, accounting for 55.9% of total CP revenue by 2030.
“Telecom operators are entering a new phase of strategic investment,” said Dario Talmesio, research director at Omdia. “With 6G on the horizon and AI infrastructure demands accelerating, the connectivity business is shifting from volume-based pricing to value-driven connectivity.”
