Europe is considered the fastest-growing region for the submarine cable system market. The availability of advanced network infrastructure is the primary factor supporting the market's growth in the last decade. Several European governments are focused on developing stronger internet connections, which has increased demand for intra-region submarine cable systems. Furthermore, rising investments by prominent key players to connect other regions with Europe to induce international internet trade is fueling the growth of submarine cable system marker for Europe. For instance, in October 2022, the European Commission considered financing for fiber optic cables to connect Europe to Asia via the Arctic by avoiding chock points. The 14,000 km long cable will connect Scandalvania and Ireland to Japan. This line will be the first to connect Europe and Asia without passing the Suez Channel in Egypt. Moreover, Lucent Enterprise, NEXANS, Pyrsmian Group, NKT A/S, Cablel Hellenic Cables Group, Hexatronic and Tratos are key players in the European submarine cable system market.

The market is flourishing in the Middle East and Africa with rising investments of major regional companies to expand the undersea cable networks. For instance, in January 2023, Facebook decided to construct its massive submarine cable ‘2Africa’ in three sites in Africa. The line is predicted to launch at the end of 2023. The Middle East is a powerhouse of the oil & gas industry, and submarine cables play a substantial role in the oil & gas industry. Connecting oil & gas platforms to the mainland, providing high-quality communication platforms and providing oceanographic surveillance are a few functions played by submarine cables for the oil & gas industry. Thus, the rising number of oil & gas industries will increase demand for submarine cable systems in the Middle East. The availability of capital for investment is another factor boosting the market's growth in the Middle East.

Market dynamics:

Driver:

Rising deployment of 5G network services

5G network services that provide faster downloading speed and advanced capabilities of networks have become a revolutionary platform in recent years. The rise of 5G will continue to drive the demand for advanced submarine cables. The deployment of 5G services is prone to increase data traffic, where the requirement for volume connectivity increases. Submarine cables carry the potential to satisfy the tremendous demand for faster network services. Submarine cables are a perfect fit for holding data traffic generated with the deployment of 5G services owing to their higher capacity of carrying terabytes per second with bi-directional fiber strands to transmit communication signals effectively.

Moreover, Key players in the global telecom industries are focused on deploying 5G services by using submarine cable systems for faster operations; this is estimated to boost the market's growth in upcoming years. For instance, in January 2023, India-based Reliance Jio, a pioneer of 5G services in India, announced an investment in the 5G network infrastructure in Tamil Nadu, India. This investment includes the installation of submarine cables, telecom towers and other expenses. Considering the advantages of submarine cables for emerging 5G network services, the deployment of 5G network services is likely to drive the growth of the submarine cable system market.
