Forecast Summary

  • Juniper Research has found that enterprise spend on private networks will near $10 billion globally by 2028; rising from $1 billion in 2023. Growing by 730%, the three verticals driving the market were identified as: Manufacturing (35%), Energy (20%), Public Services (16%).
  • The need for private networks that can support high device densities and operate over large geographical areas is an important factor. Private networks leverage cellular technologies to provide a closed network than can be fully managed by enterprises. Private networks cannot be accessed by any cellular connection, only those authorised by the network itself.
  • The manufacturing market demands more frictionless coordination of automated processes and devices, thus requiring high levels of orchestration via software-defined networks. This complexity means that manufacturing will be a key use case for the more rapid adoption of 5G private networks, due to its infrastructure supporting high-device density operations and ultra-low latency properties.
  • As network complexity increases, private network vendors will need to offer an ongoing managed service approach to enterprises. This will enable private network vendors to maintain a continuous relationship with their customers and benefit from recurring revenue. Ongoing technical support and other value-added services will be necessary to maximise the value proposition to customers.
  • Additionally, spectrum resource management will be the key determining factor in the quality of service provision to minimise network interference. As a result, network slicing will emerge as a key technology for vendors to ensure that high throughput to private network connections is guaranteed for end users.
