State of the Market:
Data at the Core of Competitive Advantage
The global data landscape is expanding at an unprecedented rate. According to Statista, the global volume of data is forecasted to reach an astonishing 394 zettabytes by 2028, a leap from just 2 zettabytes in 2010. This exponential growth places immense pressure on organisations to optimise analytics pipelines, minimise latency, and derive predictive insights in real-time.
In response to this surge, the data analytics market is experiencing significant growth. Valued at £39 billion (USD 49.03 billion) in 2022, it is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.7% from 2023 to 2030. Gartner
Similarly, the artificial intelligence (AI) market is expanding rapidly, with a CAGR of 36.6% expected from 2024 to 2030, reaching £1,450 billion (USD 1,811.75 billion) by 2030. Equally, the machine learning (ML) market is on a steep growth trajectory, with projections indicating a rise from £21 billion (USD 26.03 billion) in 2023 to £181 billion (USD 225.91 billion) by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 36.2% during the forecast period.
