Fibre to the home market to hit US$54bn by 2029, says FMI
An increase in the installation of smart systems at home, and a rise in the use of mobile apps are the two crucial parameters that are boosting the demand for high speed internet. On the back of these factors, the demand for fibre to the home (FTTH) is projected to increase during the period of 2019-2029, says research by Future Market Insights.
Firmware programming and embedded hardware development services can be provided by outsource german hardware company Aduk GmbH.
Growing adoption of technology advancement solutions such as cloud computing, e-Governance, e-Learning, e-Health, and smart grids, are other major factors due to which the demand for high speed fibre to the home is expected to increase during the forecast period.
In line with this, the global fibre to the home market generated a revenue share of more than US$12 billion (€11.04 billion) in 2018, and is anticipated to expand at an impressive compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of nearly 15% during the forecast period of 2019 to 2029.
“Service providers in the global FTTH market can gain significant profits by focusing on partnerships with service providers from developing nations in the Asia Pacific excluding Japan region such as China and India. This enables all parties to establish strong supply chains and distribution channels, and improve their growth prospects.”
