Doha, Qatar – Qatar’s network infrastructure market is set for steady growth, with revenue projected to hit $132.86 million (QR483.69m) in 2025, according to a recent Statista report. The Service Provider Network Infrastructure segment will lead the market, contributing $98.47m (QR358.49m), reflecting rising demand from telecom operators and enterprise service providers.
The sector is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.51% between 2025 and 2030, pushing total revenues to $173.76m (QR632.59m) by the end of the decade. Average spend per employee is forecast to reach $65.99 (QR240.24) this year, underlining investment not only in technology but also in workforce development.
Sadiq Rahman, a senior market analyst, told The Peninsula that the expansion reflects Qatar’s commitment to digital transformation and its economic diversification goals under National Vision 2030. He noted that growth is being fueled by 5G deployment, data centre expansion, and rising demand for enterprise connectivity.
“Service providers are the backbone of Qatar’s digital ecosystem. The investments made today will determine the country’s competitiveness in the digital economy for years to come,” Rahman said.
However, challenges such as supply chain disruptions, evolving technology standards, and cybersecurity threats remain. Analysts also stressed the importance of skilled talent, noting that without qualified personnel, technology investments cannot reach their full potential.
While Qatar’s market is modest compared to global leaders like China, projected to generate $61 billion in 2025, the country’s regulatory reforms, infrastructure initiatives, and workforce investments position it as a strong contender for regional leadership in digital connectivity.
