GSM Association says Asia-Pacific region will dominate networking equipment market

Mobile Asia Congress-GSM Association (GSMA) and Machina Research jointly announced today that the number of connected devices in the Asia-Pacific region is growing rapidly, and the region is expected to become the largest market by 2020, with a total of 110 connected devices More than 100 million units (1), of which nearly 5.6 billion are mobile connected devices (2), with a market share of 47%, far exceeding Europe (19.1%) and North America (9.4%). By providing new services for a variety of devices other than traditional mobile phones, the growth of connected devices has made the "Connected Life" concept possible. With ubiquitous mobile broadband, this will enable ordinary consumers and businesses to interact with people, information, and what they need anytime, anywhere.

GSM Association Chief Marketing Officer Michael O'Hara said: "The Asia-Pacific region accounts for more than 50% of the world's 6 billion mobile connections and is at the forefront of next-generation mobile broadband technology and advanced innovation, but it still has a lot of The growth of connected devices in the region shows the huge potential of the entire "connected life" industry chain, with billions of new devices connected through mobile networks, driving innovative applications, services and experiences in all industries. "

China will be the main driver of growth in this area, and its total number of connected devices will be close to 5 billion units by 2020, more than any other market in the world, allowing Chinese mobile operators to benefit from the highest achievable operations in the region Revenue opportunities (US $ 180 billion) (3). By 2020, the global achievable revenue opportunities owned by operators in this field will reach 1.2 trillion US dollars, and mobile operators in the Asia-Pacific region will benefit from the 447 billion US dollars of revenue, which is nearly higher than the 305 billion US dollars in Europe. 50% (4).

In the Asia-Pacific region, mobile connected devices that achieve seamless and universal connectivity between people and processes will grow substantially in the next 10 years, partly because mobile devices are almost the only option for connectivity in many countries in the region. In a market where the number of mobile connections has already accounted for more than half of the world, this is a huge opportunity for mobile operators.

The emerging Asian market will make an important contribution to the growth of the interconnected field, and the total number of connected devices will increase by more than 150% from 2011 to 2020. In developed countries in the Asia-Pacific region, by 2020, Japanese and Korean consumers will each have an average of 11 connected devices, making them the two countries with the largest number of connected devices per capita in the world. By 2020, Japan will occupy the third place in terms of the number of devices, second only to China and the United States.

Mobile health market stimulates growth of connected devices

The growth of mobile health services in the Asia-Pacific region is driving the demand for connected devices and making "connected life" a reality. In another study, the GSM Association and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) jointly released a global report entitled "Mobile Health – Enabling Healthcare" (5). The figures show that the scale of the mobile health market in the Asia-Pacific region It will increase to nearly US $ 7 billion in 2017, with a compound annual growth rate close to 70%. The mobile health services that bring the greatest growth opportunities in the region include monitoring services (market share will reach 55% in 2017) and diagnostic services (market share will reach 24%).

Driven by the growth of monitoring and diagnostics, China will become the largest mobile health market in 2017. These two services will help to provide efficient healthcare services to a wide range of people in poor medical conditions. This will help create a market opportunity of US $ 2.4 billion in China, which dwarfs the Japanese market (US $ 1.3 billion) and the Indian market (US $ 540 million). Due to the large number of elderly people, monitoring services will have the largest market opportunities in Japan (63% market share), while in India, diagnostic services will have the greatest market opportunities (market 67% share).

O'Hara continued: "Mobile health is a great example of how mobile operators can use existing platforms and technologies to provide innovative services to connected service consumers in the Asia-Pacific region. The growth of Asia-Pacific connected devices through various applications means that The region is about to start transforming the lives of its consumers in a professional and personal way from fundamental business. To make 'connected life' ubiquitous, close cooperation between the mobile industry and key related industries in the region is essential. These related industries also include Healthcare industry. "

"Networked life" opportunities are by no means limited to the field of healthcare. The close cooperation between the mobile industry and many vertical industry companies such as automobiles, utilities and consumer electronics products will provide compelling new "connected" services to consumers and businesses worldwide. The advantage in this respect is huge, because "connected life" will create new opportunities for enterprises, connect with new customers while doing business with existing customers, and provide new service opportunities to create more revenue.
