Between June and August 2024, GSMA Intelligence surveyed nearly 4,200 enterprises across 21 countries and 10 vertical sectors to gain insight into their digital transformation. For each enterprise, GSMA Intelligence targeted respondents who are either decision-makers for digital transformation plans/projects or provide recommendations to decision-makers.

The survey focused on different aspects of digital transformation (strategic objectives, investment plans and priorities, deployment challenges, supplier decisions) and a range of technologies enabling digital transformation, including 5G, private networks, AI, cloud, edge, IoT, eSIM, cybersecurity and network APIs.

Enterprise spend on digital transformation will account for 9% of enterprise revenue during 2024–2026, growing to 11% during 2027–2030. While B2B is a competitive market, the scale of enterprise spend is considerable, providing new business opportunities to all categories of supplier, including operators.
