The UK Telecoms Market: A Brief Explainer

Led by the members of the Telecoms Infrastructure Working Group, techUK is pleased to present the first briefing in a wider initiative to educate and inform stakeholders about the vital telecoms market.

 

The document offers a high-level overview of the sector, highlighting key trends, challenges, and opportunities for stakeholders. It is aimed at MPs, policymakers, and local government officials, providing insight into the current state of telecoms infrastructure and its critical role in the economy and future growth.

Some key points from the briefing include:

  • State of the Telecoms Market: Overview of the market landscape, including trends in broadband, mobile, and 5G deployment.
  • Regulatory and Policy Landscape: High-level summary of current and upcoming policies that impact the telecoms market, including spectrum allocation, investment incentives, and infrastructure development.
  • Promoting Advocacy: A look at the policy areas and sectoral barriers that advocates can help the sector overcome and ensure the UK benefits from the accelerated rollout of both fixed and wireless technologies.
