APAC Market Forecast
Asia Pacific silver nanowires market is projected to hold the largest revenue share of 35% by the end of 2035. The regional growth can majorly be attributed to the increasing demand for consumer electronics. The Asia Pacific region is home to some of the largest consumer electronics markets in the world, including China, Japan, and South Korea. According to the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, China's smartphone shipments reached 365 million units in the first quarter of 2021, a year-on-year increase of 66%.
The Asia Pacific region is also seeing increasing investment in renewable energy sources, propelling the market demand. Governments in the region are implementing favorable policies to encourage the development of new technologies and industries. Also, Asia Pacific being one of the largest and growing manufacturing industry is boosting the market expansion.
North American Market Statistics
North America region, amongst all the other regions, is projected to hold the second largest silver nanowires market share of about 24% by 2035. This is owing to increasing demand for touchscreen displays across the region. Silver nanowires are a key component of touchscreens, and their demand is expected to continue to grow as manufacturers look for high-performance and energy-efficient alternatives to traditional touchscreens.
The North American region is a leader in nanotechnology research and development. Researchers in the region are developing new synthesis methods and exploring new applications for silver nanowires, which is expected to create new opportunities for the market.
In 2023, market players might incur losses due to huge gap in currency translation followed by contracting revenues, shrinking profit margins & cost pressure on logistics and supply chain.
Controlling Inflation has become the first priority for global economies from last quarter of 2022 and to be followed in 2023. With skewed economic situations, rise in interest rate by governments to control spending and inflation, spiked oil and gas prices, high inflation, geo-political issues including U.S. & China trade war, Russia-Ukraine conflict to intensify the global economic issues.
The interest rates in the U.S. may be less sensitive in 2023 as compared to 2022; sigh of relief for businesses. Positive business sentiments, healthy business balance sheets, growth in construction spending (private construction value in 2022 stood at $1,429.2 billion, 11.7 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $1,279.5 billion spent in 2021, Residential construction in 2022 was $899.1 billion, up by 13.3 percent (±2.1 percent) from $793.7 billion in 2021, non-residential construction touched $530.1 billion, 9.1 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $485.8 billion in 2021.) showcases minimal impact of recession in the country.
Similarly, spiked spending in the European and major Asia economics including, India, China & Japan to showcase less impact on the global demand.
