The spreadsheet provides 2011-21 actuals and projections through 2027, and includes projections from past forecasts for reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eRevenues from the aggregate of our three segments – telco, webscale, and carrier-neutral – were $4,121 billion (B) in 2021, and will grow to $5,755B by 2027. Three segment capex ended 2021 at $536B, and will likely hit $646B in 2027. Most of the growth is from webscale. In 2011, webscale was less than 10% of capex, but had grown to 33.2% in 2021 and will progress upwards to over 41% by 2027. Telco capital intensity peaks in 2022 at 18% in 2022 and heads towards a bit more than 16% by 2027. Webscale capital intensity averages around 8% for the forecast period, with a big piece of the near-term upside coming from Meta\/Facebook. Capital intensity is highest in carrier-neutral, as usual, well over 30% for the whole forecast period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eHeadcount across the three operator segments has grown dramatically in the last decade, from 6.48 million in 2011 to 8.86M in 2021; it’s likely to hit 10.2 million by 2027. Nearly all of the growth is from webscale, with a good portion of this growth on webscale’s ecommerce side (e.g. Amazon, Alibaba, and JD.COM). Telco headcount continues to shrink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere are hundreds of network operators across the globe, of various types. This report covers about 200, across the telco\/webscale\/CNNO market. The interactive Excel model provides 2011-21 actuals and projections through 2027, and includes projections from past forecasts for reference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003ePlease Note: This product is delivered as a Excel File.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Technology \u0026 Media","offers":[{"title":"December, 2022 \/ - \/ MCW16292922","offer_id":47716249010482,"sku":null,"price":2400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.hardmanwell.com\/products\/network-operator-forecast-through-2027-december-2022-update","provider":"HARDMAN AND WELL MANAGEMENT CONSULTANCIES L.L.C","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
