Cellnex Telecom is an independent operator of wireless telecommunications and broadcasting infrastructure, offering operators access to the most extensive network of advanced telecommunications infrastructure in Europe.

Cellnex’s portfolio includes around 135,000 base stations – including those expected to be launched by 2030 – in Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, France, Switzerland, Great Britain, Ireland, Portugal, Austria, Denmark, Sweden and Poland.

In Poland, Cellnex started operations in 2021, after taking over towers and masts from the Play and Polkomtel network operators. Poland is also the first country where Cellnex also invested in active infrastructure (antennas, transmitters), purchasing them from Polkomtel.
