Edge compute: coming to a place near you

Edge computing plays a vital role in enabling digital transformation. Understanding its deployment status, benefits and challenges is key to unlocking new use cases and revenue opportunities across the value chain.

GSMA Intelligence conducted a survey in June and July 2023 to evaluate investment sentiment, challenges, costs and opportunities for edge computing. The survey involved 400 executives from companies across the value chain, including mobile operators, network equipment vendors, cloud service providers, IoT service providers/systems integrators and car manufacturers. The survey was complemented with analysis of proprietary data and company interviews.
