FREMONT, Calif., Oct. 13, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- BIS Research published a report titled, "6G Market - A Global and Regional Analysis, Focus on Product, Device, Communication Infrastructure, End-Use Application, Consumer Application, Industrial and Enterprise, Material, and Region - Analysis and Forecast, 2029-2035." According to the report, the 6G market is projected to be $1.58 billion in 2028, and it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 103.35% and reach $1,293.19 billion by 2035.

6G Market Drivers

The 6G market gets a push from today's tech-reliant world. Even a millisecond of lag can disrupt tasks, particularly in critical systems such as autonomous vehicles. Advances in internet technology now support interactive applications, such as online gaming and financial trading, which demand minimal latency, often under 100 milliseconds; for instance, effective video conferencing needs at least 8 Mbps download and 1.5 Mbps upload speeds. This growing emphasis on responsiveness is driving a surge in demand for low-latency networking applications, especially in sectors such as finance.

6G Market Challenges

The key challenge to the adoption of the 6G market is lower adoption from the previous generation technologies. The telecom sector is evolving with the introduction of advanced network technologies, such as 5G, launched in 2019. While its features, such as enhanced broadband and low-latency communications, have been adopted in nations such as Finland, South Korea, and Japan, many regions are yet to embrace it. Current devices may not be 5G-compatible, necessitating upgrades that could hinder swift adoption due to associated costs and device availability.

6G Market Opportunities

6G has the potential to greatly advance blockchain, IoT applications, and AI usage. Over recent years, the integration of AI and IoT in communication systems, especially with 5G, has surged. These tech tools create and decode data to derive valuable insights. Yet, they've struggled with slow data speeds, causing lag in responses. The upcoming 6G technology aims to tackle these limitations, improving peer-to-peer connectivity. With 6G, IoT devices can relay vast data quantities faster, facilitating immediate data interpretation.

Key Players

The key players operating in the 6G market include Apple Inc., AT&T Inc., China United Network Communications Group, Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., Intel Corporation, MediaTek Inc., Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation, Nokia Corporation, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., SK Telecom, T-Mobile US, Inc., Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson, Verizon Communications Inc., ZTE Corporation, Reliance Industries Limited, Keysight Technologies, amongst others. These companies are focusing on strategic partnerships, collaborations, and acquisitions to enhance their product offerings and expand their market presence. In conclusion, the market for 6G is projected to grow and evolve significantly because of factors such as the use of holography in communication, the role of 6G in the growth of IoT, blockchain, artificial intelligence, UN SDGs, and mobile communications.
