Cellnex completes €1.6 billion Polish expansion

Ambitious Spanish infrastructure specialist Cellnex has completed its acquisition of Polkomtel Infrastruktura.
The move was announced in February and needed to be approved by the appropriate authorities. The apparent absence of the EU from the process resulted in a relatively quick turnaround by Polish competition authority UOKiK. Cellnex has now added around 7,000 towers and a bunch of active infrastructure, including RAN gear, microwave radio links and fibre backhaul, to its bulging portfolio.
