LTE Expected to Drive Mobile Broadband Services in Morocco to $323m by 2017

Published on:

­Commercial LTE service in Morocco is expected to arrive in 2014, helping operators meet the growing demand for mobile broadband services, which is expected to total $323 million in revenue by 2017, according to a new report from Pyramid Research.

"The telecommunications regulator in Morocco, ANRT, announced on May 18, 2012, that it would issue a tender for 4G licenses in fall of the same year," says Ronda Zelezny-Green, Associate Research Analyst at Pyramid Research.

The expectation is that licenses would be awarded at the beginning of 2013 with the expectation that 4G operations would commence at the end of 2013/start of 2014.

"Adoption of 4G technology will heavily depend on operators' ability to make services affordable for the average Moroccan consumer," she adds.
