Communications, media and internet concentration in Italy, 2019-2021 - Dataset

Twenty-seven industries are categorized into three macro-sectors: Telecommunications and Internet Access, Online and Traditional Media, and Core Internet Applications. Key findings include the Italian network media economy's worth of 47.385 billion EUR in 2021, a 3.5% drop from 2019 due to declines in traditional media, countered by digital industry growth.

Wireless remains the largest sector, but core GAFAM and Netflix's influence rises. The Italian media economy, while concentrated, is gradually internationalizing, reflecting global industry integration. *NOTE: This data was originally published on January 15, 2024 but re-released on April 9, 2024. The report and underlying tables for the figures in it were revised so that CR4 and HHI scores for each of the three mid-range sectors that the GMIC Project reports on—telecoms and internet access sectors, online and traditional media services, and core internet sectors—are based on 'pooled averages' rather than 'simple averages’.
