This large-scale M&A activity highlights the dynamic investment landscape in 2025, which indirectly affects material sourcing and industrial strategies across connected markets like telecom infrastructure.

✅ Thermo Fisher Scientific acquires Purification and Filtration business from Solventum (Indirect Impact): While in a different market, this $4.1 billion acquisition in July 2025 demonstrates significant corporate consolidation activity across various industrial and tech sectors during the period.

✅ Orange completes Open RAN field trial: In July 2025, telecom operator Orange completed a significant Open RAN field trial, indicating a focus on testing and validation rather than M&A activity in this specific period.

✅ Nokia receives new contract from Deutsche Telekom: In a strategic commercial development, Nokia secured a new mobile network contract with Deutsche Telekom. This highlights ongoing vendor selection processes and multi-vendor strategies, which are a core characteristic of the Open RAN market, as operators select partners for large-scale deployments.

Market Segmentation Analysis:
-By Offering: Hardware leads the market, holding approximately 56% share in 2024, driven by the critical need for tangible infrastructure components like radio units and distributed units. Software is a fast-growing segment fueled by network virtualization and intelligent control systems, while Services including consulting, deployment, and maintenance hold a smaller yet expanding share.

-By Component: Radio Units (RU) dominate with around 40% of the market share due to their role as the essential link between mobile devices and networks, enabling multi-vendor hardware flexibility. Distributed Units (DU) and Centralized Units (CU) follow, with RAN Intelligent Controller (RIC) growing as a pioneering software element enhancing network orchestration.

-By Network Deployment: Hybrid Cloud Networks represent the largest segment with approximately 50% market share, balancing on-premises edge processing and cloud scalability. Private and Public Cloud Networks make up the rest, with Private Cloud seeing the fastest growth due to security and control benefits.

-By Frequency Band: Sub-6 GHz holds the majority share given its widespread use in 4G/5G networks, while mmWave is gaining traction for high-capacity, short-range use cases. The "Other" frequency band segment remains niche.

-By End-User: Telecom Operators constitute the highest market share around 75%, as they are the primary adopters deploying O-RAN solutions for 4G and 5G networks. Enterprises/Industries and Government Authorities represent emerging segments as O-RAN expands beyond traditional telecom applications.
