Pretty much any ISP is capable of obtaining their own PA space under 
current RIR policies, regardless of size. The prohibition on PA space 
is to end sites, not ISPs.

See, for example:

The myth that only large, established ISPs are able to obtain PA IPv6 
address space really needs to disappear.
