The ICT market in EMEA is going through a period of fragmented growth, increasing the need for detailed, accurate, and specialized information.

It provides ICT spending on 60 EMEA geographies and covers up to 35 different product and services segments of the ICT market. This database product aggregates top-level intelligence from across IDC's regional and local research departments to provide country-by-country forecasts detailing the sizing and growth of hardware, software, IT services, and telecommunications markets.
