The global open RAN market size is estimated to reach USD 20.41 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 25.6% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. An open radio access network (O-RAN or Open RAN) is a concept based on the standardization and interoperability of RAN elements, including open-source software elements and a unified interconnection standard for white-box hardware from various vendors. Increasing adoption of open RAN hardware and software owing to their numerous benefits, such as improved network performance, lower equipment costs, improved security, and network flexibility, is a major factor driving the growth of the market.

In addition, the increasing commercialization of 5G services and demand for O-RAN from mobile operators are further driving the market’s growth. The O-RAN technology and architecture reduce mobile network deployment and maintenance costs by encouraging competition among vendors and streamlining network management. It also reduces the need for costly proprietary hardware and enables operators to source components from multiple vendors. This multi-vendor ecosystem ultimately saves costs and enhances network resiliency. Furthermore, open RAN is transforming the telecommunications industry by incorporating modern cloud and software technologies, ultimately propelling the market's growth.
Furthermore, the robust deployment of a 5G radio access network with several macrocells and small cell base stations and the introduction of open RAN components by several players worldwide is propelling the growth of the market. For instance, in October 2022, Vodafone Group Plc and Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. announced their partnership to develop, integrate, and test next-generation 5G radio units (RU) and distributed units (DUs) with Massive MIMO capabilities to meet the demands of the modern networks and to provide the commercial deployment of O-RAN in Europe.The growing demand for low latency and high-speed bandwidth connection and the increased focus of major organizations on research and development activities are some of the factors boosting the market growth.
Open RAN Market Report Highlights
• The services segment is expected to register the fastest CAGR over the forecast period due to the growing demand for specialized expertise and support in managing & deploying O-RAN infrastructure
