The Massachusetts-based towerco had planned to deploy around 300 towers in Latin America, out of a total of 4,000 worldwide. However, ATC ended the year with only 210 towers built in the region, according to its latest operations and financial report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite this setback, the company reported 1.9% year-on-year LatAm property revenue growth in Q4 to US$435mn, and 6.3% in the full year to US$1.80bn. The region is ATC\u2019s second biggest revenue-generating geography after the US &amp; Canada. The expected churn for this year relates mainly to contract cancellations and lease renegotiations following telco consolidations in Latin America, notably the acquisition of Oi\u2019s mobile business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">News in: ICT (Brazil)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Brazil aims to auction 5G frequencies in 2021.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>4G connectivity is widespread in Brazil.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Major telecom providers are testing 5G services.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Brazil&#8217;s government is investing in 5G network infrastructure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Companies in: ICT (Brazil)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the companies previously mentioned, Brazil&#8217;s information and communication technology (ICT) industry is home to several other notable players.
