EUROPE - Telecommunications Market Overview and Statistics
These Paul Budde reports provide statistics and analysis on the European Internet and Telecommunications markets. Individual countries are considered in the context of subscriber numbers, penetration, and market growth, though the focus is on issues that are common to all countries in the region. The reports introduce the key legal issues relating to roaming and interconnection, together with the status of analogue and digital technologies. The key mobile operators across Europe are profiled, including statistics on their customer base, financial results and strategies.
