The global smart education and learning market, valued at $260 billion in 2022, is expected to surge to $1.4 trillion by 2032, according to a recent report by Allied Market Research. This marks a compound annual growth rate of 18.4 percent from 2023 to 2032.
Smart education leverages digital tools and technology, including online platforms, virtual classrooms, and adaptive learning systems, to enhance teaching and learning experiences. This innovative approach eliminates geographical constraints, thus expanding educational opportunities, particularly for individuals in remote or underserved areas.
Factors propelling the market growth include increased demand for online learning tools, supportive government initiatives, and corporate funding for smart education. Additionally, the growing need for interactive and personalized learning environments further fuels this growth. However, the report also highlights hurdles such as digital literacy gaps and data privacy concerns.
The smart education market can be segmented into components (software, services, educational content, and hardware), learning modes, end users, and regions. The academics segment dominated in 2022, driven by its ability to address specific educational institution needs. However, the corporate sector is predicted to exhibit substantial growth, given its potential for providing targeted skills training.
Regionally, Europe led the market in 2022 and is expected to maintain its position, driven by robust demand for high-quality mobile services and advanced technology adoption. Asia-Pacific, however, is set to exhibit significant growth due to an increased demand for quality education, skills development, and rapid internet and mobile device adoption.
Key industry players such as Adobe Systems Incorporated, Blackboard Inc, and Cisco Systems, Inc, dominate the market and adopt various strategies to bolster their market position. The rising implementation of augmented reality and virtual reality in education also forecasts potential market expansion.
Furthermore, the cloud-based virtual desktop infrastructure market, which enables seamless work access from anywhere, is expected to register high growth. Increased digitization, smartphone penetration, and growing demand for workforce productivity contribute to this growth.
A positive response to the remote working trend, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, has also boosted demand for cloud-based VDI solutions. With further investment and technological advancements worldwide, the market is expected to see significant expansion.
Government initiatives, such as India’s planned incentive scheme to support domestic cloud-technology companies, contribute to the growth of the cloud-based VDI market. Similarly, the expansion of cloud computing technology, such as Japan’s plan to develop shared quantum computing using a business-friendly cloud platform, supports the market’s growth trajectory.
