Smarter Entrepreneurs Finding Smaller Sector Opportunities From Smart Homes

DT currently estimates that automation devices currently only form a small slice of the overall smart home market pie. According to MarketsandMarkets, the global home automation and control market was worth €5.18 billion in 2013 and is expected to reach €11.6 billion by 2020; and the market is projected to grow at an estimated compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.36% between 2015 and 2020.

“Central to success in appealing to consumers will be ease of set-up and interconnection across devices, but also pervasive distribution,” the report adds. “Parks Associates claim that during the 2014–15 holiday season multiple retailers in the USA expanded their shelf space devoted to smart connected devices, with most notably BestBuy allotting over 75 square meters in some locations to its connected home initiative.”
