EC/IST FP6 Project No 026920 Work Package: 6 Type of document: Report Date: 20.12.2007 File name: OP_WP6_D37_V1.0.doc Version: 1.0 Title: Worldwide Market Research Report 174 / 356 [E23] New EU members are also upgrading their telecommunications infrastructures to compete with other EU countries. There is also a fledgling broadband market in Eastern Europe, with about 300,000 subscribers in Hungary and more than 1 million in the region as a whole. Declining costs are making broadband more accessible. DSL costs are down more than 20% in Hungary, for example, and rising internet penetration will expand the potential market for broadband. Broadband access revenue could reach $1.8 billion by 2008. Figure 5-20 Internet, Mobile and Fixed-lines penetration in Eastern Europe A factor moderating telephone subscription growth in Eastern Europe (including the republics of the former Soviet Union) is the declining population. Even though landline penetration has been increasing, the number of landline subscribers has grown at low

Russia is the dominant country in the region, with 39 million landlines, representing 41% of the total. The growing demand for Internet access is creating a demand for landlines. Internet penetration in Eastern Europe reached nearly 19% in 2004 from 10% in 2001. In 2008, internet penetration could reach 31%. As it regards the wireless market, it added 15.5 million subscribers in 2004, reaching 110.2 million. The wireless market surpassed the landline market in 2003 and widened the gap in 2004, when it was 15.8%. In 2000, the Czech Republic, Estonia and Slovenia became the first countries to have more wireless than landline subscribers. Albania and Hungary joined that group in 2001. By 2008, wireless subscribers will outnumber landline subscribers in most countries in the region, with wireless subscribers totaling 162.2 million, or 47.4% more than landline's 110 million Russia retained its position as the country with the most wireless subscribers, growing from 25.0 million to 30.0 million in 2004. Wireless penetration averaged 28.0% for the region in 2004, up from 24.0% in 2003. There are wide disparities in penetration among countries. In the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovenia, for example, more than 90% of the population subscribes to a wireless service, among the highest percentages in the world. Estonia has a penetration rate above 80%, while Lithuania and the Slovak Republic have penetration rates above 70%. In Russia, the largest wireless market in absolute size, penetration was only 21% in 2004, while in Poland, the second-largest market, it was 54%. By 2008, the penetration rate for the region is projected to reach 41.4%, up from 28.0% in 2004. The Czech Republic is expected to reach greater than 100% penetration, with some people having more than one phone. Croatia, Estonia, Lithuania and the Slovak Republic will join Hungary and Slovenia as countries with wireless penetration of more than 90%. In Appendix A, table 5 shows the broadband penetration of the internet services among the population and the growth of this technology in the last 7 years (2000-2007). The same table shows also the percentage over 1,000 people of the diffusion of radios, TVs, mobile phones and Personal Computers.
