KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 20 (Bernama) -- According to Euromonitor International’s new research presented at IP EXPO Nordic 2018 today, hi-tech goods production value is expected to triple to US$16 trillion (1US$ = RM4.13) in 2030.
“This shift towards more Internet-enabled products has been dubbed the Internet of Things (IoT). This refers to a virtual network connecting things, people and devices,” said Euromonitor International senior industry analyst, Justinas Liuima.
“IoT is set to be pivotal technology in the Industry 4.0 revolution and is expected to be the most impactful technological advancement for businesses over the next five years,” he added.
In fact, nearly 60 per cent of the 1,500 industry professionals surveyed by Euromonitor International in February 2018 ranked IoT’s impact ahead of artificial intelligence.
Liuma highlighted that 100 to 150 billion devices are expected to be connected to IoT by 2030, opening new business opportunities to telecoms and security service providers.
The telecoms market is forecasted to grow by 84 per cent and reach US$4.3 trillion in 2030, while computer services are expected to reach US$5.9 trillion and 122 per cent growth.
The top three countries ready to use the advantages of the IoT are the United States, Singapore and the Netherlands, with Scandinavian countries leading in Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, communication technologies and cellular subscriptions.
