Prof. Nikitas Alexandridis‘, (President of EETT) presentation in the 73rd Thessaloniki International Fair provided information about the current status of the Greek broadband market. Below find some key remarks:
- 1,294.1bn euros were invested in 2007 in the Greek market. 295M euros were invested by OTE and 999.1M euros by the rest of the players (including mobile carriers)
- 1,246M broadband subscribers in Greece at the end of June 2008. 246,000 in Northern Greece. This constitutes a 23% increase since the end of 2007 and accumulates to a penetration of 11.2%
- 524,000 were the unbundled local loops in the country (91% increase since the end of 2007)
- 152 Central Offices of OTE offer physical colocation services to alternative operators
- 99.8% of all broadband lines have a nominal download speed of at least 1Mbps (don’t you just feel the speed?)
Below find a graph of the broadband penetration of ADSL connections. The red line indicates the sum of broadband connections excluding the unbundled local loops and the green line indicates the unbundled local loops. Adding the figures vertically you’ll get the total subscribers per quarter:
