Market Trends & Insights

* Regional Drivers: Asia-Pacific remains the largest and fastest-growing market due to government-mandated digital switch-offs and IPTV expansion in China and India. In Africa, satellite (DTH) remains dominant, with massive digital transition subsidies fueling demand. Mordorintelligence Fortunebusinessinsights
