The Frost Radar independently evaluates companies with a significant influence on the market in a particular industry. As highlighted in the Frost Radar methodology, the innovation and growth scores are used to rate a company’s focus on continuous innovation and ability to translate the innovations into consistent growth.

The report plots top industry participants, standing out among companies positioned as the overall market leaders, leaders in a market segment, and thought leaders in certain segments.

Commenting on Ericsson’s top result by the growth index, Troy Morley, the author of the report said, “Ericsson has spent the past few years adjusting its overall strategy to focus on profitability. The company has indicated that its strategy has been successful, even with the challenges brought by the pandemic. As a leader in the 4G infrastructure market, Ericsson enters the 5G market with a large customer base. The company has done an excellent job keeping its current customers and adding new ones.”
