Why tower design should be “as simple as it can be but no simpler”

TowerXchange has started our preliminary research into the tower industry in Southeast Asia to find out whether we could add value by extending our coverage to the region. Since then we’ve been inundated with enquiries about Indonesia, Myanmar, Malaysia, Vietnam, Cambodia and beyond, even before we had published a word of research! So we’re happy to share this sneak preview of our forthcoming coverage of the tower industry in Southeast Asia.

The Mexican tower industry is also being transformed. Out of the 22,500-23,000 Mexican telecom towers, around 14,000 are owned by Telcel, 8,000 by American Tower, 600 by Mexico Tower Partners and 250 by IIMT. It has been estimated that 70,000 towers are needed in Mexico to reach 90% coverage. An astounding figure especially if we take into consideration that Mexico has one of the highest costs per tower in the region. Mexico is certainly one of the most attractive growth markets in the global tower industry.
