Forrester: Global Tech Spend To Grow 5.3% In 2024, Reaching $4.7 Trillion


The Asia Pacific region will see the fastest growth; six countries forecasted to have the largest GDP growth are in Asia

SINGAPORE, Jan. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Forrester’s (Nasdaq: FORR) Global Tech Market Forecast, 2023 To 2027, reveals that as economic conditions continue to improve, technology spend will grow 5.3% in 2024 — up from 3.5% in 2023. Two factors will primarily contribute to this growth: Increased spending on software and IT services, including generative AI (genAI), cloud, security, and digital, and economic growth in Asia Pacific. By 2027, software and IT services will capture 69% of global tech spend, with investments in genAI software predicted to reach $227 billion by 2030 at a 36% compound annual growth rate. Asian countries, especially India, the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, and China, will see the fastest tech spend growth in 2024.

Global tech spend is expected to reach $4.7 trillion in 2024, with growth occurring across all regions:

  • Asia Pacific will grow 5.7%. India is one of the largest exporters of technology services: IT exports will reach $194 billion in 2023, and total technology and service industry revenues could reach $350 billion by 2025.
  • North America will grow 5.4%. Software and IT services will capture 60% of US tech spend in 2027, up from 53% in 2018. Financial services and healthcare will see the fastest tech spend growth in 2024, with more modest growth in retail, manufacturing, transportation, and logistics.
  • Europe will grow 5.1%. After a challenging 2023, the European economy will recover in 2024 to grow almost double the rate compared to the previous year. Longer term, European tech spend will see 5.1% to 5.7% growth from 2024 to 2027, driven by higher enterprise digital maturity and more advanced cybersecurity adoption.

“Technology companies faced significant economic headwinds this past year, but 2024 promises a better outlook,” said Michael O’Grady, principal forecast analyst at Forrester. “Asia will see the fastest economic growth due to India’s growing IT export market as well as significant investments in tech innovation. Similarly, in the US, heavy investments in emerging technologies through the development of three primary CHIPS and Science Act agencies will fuel tech spend growth. In Europe, greater investment in cybersecurity and the EU’s Coordinated Plan on AI will help the region bounce back. Demand for cloud and AI is strong across all regions, with genAI expected to boost the tech market over the next three years.”

To address the recurring issue of children being left alone in cars and the risk of heat-related incidents, countries worldwide are increasingly focusing on the development of products with similar functionalities, such as CPD. The European New Car Assessment Programme (Euro NCAP) includes CPD functionality as part of the automotive safety assessment. Additionally, the U.S. Congress passed the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, urging the Department of Transportation (DOT) to take action to reduce child deaths due to hot cars. This underscores the increasing importance and ubiquity of CPD systems.

Setting itself apart from products that merely detect the presence of occupants, TMYTEK’s in-car CPD technology utilizes millimeter-wave radar TDM-MIMO FMCW technology. This technology can differentiate between adults and children, objects and non-objects. It integrates heartbeat and respiratory detection technology, seamlessly integrating with HCMF Group’s panoramic sunroof system. Operating at the zenith of the car cabin, it conducts a 360-degree, no-dead-angle scan to detect the interior space. The system then transmits real-time interior status information to the car owner’s mobile phone, allowing immediate awareness of the car’s conditions and providing advanced warnings in case of anomalies. The millimeter-wave radar TDM-MIMO FMCW technology utilizes 3 transmitting antennas and 4 receiving antennas to generate 12 sets of transceiver links. This simulates an antenna array aperture similar to the size of 12 antennas, effectively enhancing the horizontal and vertical scanning angles of the antenna array and improving angular resolution.

“TMYTEK’s millimeter-wave radar technology entering the automotive market is complemented by the crucial role played by HCMF Group.” said Su-Wei Chang, Founder and President of TMYTEK. “Our collaboration consistently prioritizes user perspectives, developing cutting-edge products that meet market demands. We believe that the role and applications of millimeter-wave radar are indispensable, and TMYTEK is prepared to address diverse applications in the future, including road vehicle monitoring, automated driving, traffic flow detection, collision prevention, and more.”

Jeffrey Hsi, CTO of HCMF group, stated that, “We are fortunate to collaborate with TMYTEK integrating their advanced millimeter-wave radar technology into our smart vehicles. This collaboration not only enhances the safety and stability of our vehicles but also solidifies our position as a leader in innovative technology. We look forward to providing customers with more advanced and reliable smart vehicle solutions through this integration, contributing to the development of driving safety technology together.”

Regarding intelligent car doors, TMYTEK successfully applied millimeter-wave radar algorithms to HCMF Group’s autonomously designed and developed automatic side door opening and closing system. This system detects obstacles outside the door when it opens automatically and integrates HCMF’s unique anti-pinch mechanism to prevent collisions with external objects during automatic door opening and avoid accidental pinching during closing. TMYTEK’s millimeter-wave radar operates in the 60-64GHz millimeter-wave frequency band, offering a high bandwidth advantage of 4GHz to provide high-distance and high-speed resolution. The system can be set for various modes, such as standby mode, software update mode, and working mode, and for scanning areas, it can be configured into multiple hierarchical blocks, such as alert zones and restricted zones. All of these capabilities rely on the rich data provided by millimeter-wave radar, including speed, angle, and distance.

TMYTEK is dedicated to millimeter-wave solutions, laying the foundation from communication technologies like 5G/B5G and satellite communication. As the technology matures, it rapidly expands into the automotive market, striving to integrate millimeter-wave technology into various future intelligent applications and safety systems, driving the synergy between technology and safety excellence.

Pocket PangPang automatically matches a customer with one product from a selection of food, household items, cosmetics, smartphones, and luxury designer goods for a single price of 200 Baht. All items sold at Pocket PangPang have a retail price of 200 Baht or more, and customers can instantly check what they have purchased. This is what sets Pocket PangPang apart from Mystery Box. If the customer does not like or need the matched product, it may be returned in the form of app points, swapped.

Pocket PangPang announced that it would continue to update diverse goods and brand items, as well as host events for Thai users. To celebrate the release in Thailand, Pocket PangPang is presently hosting an event in which all users who sign up for Pocket PangPang will get free points to buy product boxes.

Pocket PangPang is available for download from the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store.
