The mobile markets in the Middle East & Africa are among the most well-developed in the world. Nearly half of the region (around 25 countries) achieved unique subscriber penetration rates of 70% or above by the end of 2018. In comparison, for the same duration, the global average was 66%. Subscription growth has slowed to less than 2% yearly in the region's more mature markets. However, in the region's frontier countries, where subscriber penetration rates are still below 50%, there are still considerable growth prospects. Over the same period, the number of mobile internet users will increase at a CAGR of 5.4%, pushing the region's mobile internet penetration beyond 50% for the first time. Existing 2G users are migrating to mobile broadband networks, which is driving the market. The majority of new mobile customers, particularly those in the younger demographics, opt for 3G/4G right away. The proliferation of smartphones is having a huge influence on mobile internet usage and data consumption. By 2025, the number of smartphone users in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region will surpass 500 million. As a result, the SDM market would be benefitted from the expanding mobile market in the region. Furthermore, in the MENA region, 5G services have become a reality. Ten providers had started commercial 5G services in five GCC Arab States as of October 2019. These nations' mobile carriers are seeking to be world leaders in 5G installations, and some governments see the technology as a possible facilitator for their digital transformation goals. 5G operations will extend throughout the region in the 2020s, with testing and commercial launches planned in non-GCC nations. There will be 45 million 5G connections in the region by 2025, accounting for 6% of all mobile connections. Hence, the growing telecom industry will propel the SDM market in the region.
In case of COVID-19, MEA is highly affected especially Turkey followed by South Africa, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt, Morocco, and Kuwait. Saudi Arabia's economy shrank by 7% in the second quarter, indicating how hard the latest coronavirus struck both the oil and non-oil industries, and unemployment reached a new high of 15.4%. MEA is generally an importer of servers and hardware required for the market. The sudden outbreak of the pandemic, restricted import activities from across the globe thereby negatively impacting the market in the region. However, with the population forced to stay indoors due to the rising case of COVID-19 across the region, it has experienced a rise in subscription across various streaming platforms. For instance, In April 2020, the number of consumers of streaming video content in the MEA area increased by 141%. Similarly, when lockdowns were imposed across the area to prevent the spread of Covid-19, the UAE-based video streaming service Starzplay saw a significant increase in subscribers and usage hours. From 1.25 million at the end of 2019 to 1.85 million in September 2020, the number of customers has increased by 600,000. Thus, the sudden rise in subscribers across the region is positively impacting the growth of the market.

Surging over the top (OTT) subscription is expected to surge the market growth. The rising adoption of OTT has considerably assisted the video, music, podcast, and audio streaming categories. The narrow genre selections, packaging flexibility, wider device availability, internet penetration, and overall cheaper costs are all contributing to the increasing subscription of OTT across the region. The OTT market is being driven by the ongoing commoditization of media and entertainment services, as well as increased competition among several OTT providers. According to Deltatre's 2019 edition of "The Future of Sports Entertainment," sports content distributors throughout the region are investing roughly 15% of their entire operating budget to develop the OTT technology stack. Furthermore, rather than being viewed as platforms for downloading movies and TV episodes, companies that provide OTT platform services are investing in the expansion and licensing of their content. Thus, the growth in exclusive content across the OTT platforms is also contributing to the rise in subscriptions. For instance, in 2020, Netflix has recorded millions of subscribers across the region. Thus, the rise in OTT subscribers across the region is contributing to the increasing number of subscribers data for the companies, thereby influencing the adoption of subscriber data management solutions across MEA region.
