In Latin America, the Open vRAN market is gradually gaining attention as regional operators look for cost-effective solutions to expand mobile broadband, especially in underserved and rural areas. Governments in countries like Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia are initiating policy reforms and public-private partnerships to boost 5G deployment, which is acting as a significant driver. However, limited capital expenditure, inadequate spectrum allocation, and a reliance on traditional network architectures are key restraints. Despite these challenges, the growing trend of virtualization and the demand for vendor-neutral solutions offer a strong opportunity for Open vRAN vendors. The movement toward open standards aligns with the region's need for flexible, scalable infrastructure without vendor lock-in. The deployment of cloud-native technologies, combined with a regional emphasis on digital inclusion, is a trend that supports Open vRAN growth. As telecoms aim to reduce total cost of ownership while expanding coverage, particularly in low-ARPU zones, Open RAN is becoming increasingly attractive. The LATAM Open vRAN market is expected to grow at a CAGR of about 20.3% between 2024 and 2030.
