ABI Research, a market-foresight advisory firm providing strategic guidance on the most compelling transformative technologies, announced significant findings in the AI & Machine Learning, Industrial Solution, and Telco Digitization markets.
Moving AI Processing to the Edge Will Shake Up the Semiconductor Industry
Revenue from the sale of artificial intelligence (AI) chipsets for edge inference and inference training will grow at 65% and 137% respectively between 2018 and 2023, creating massive new potential revenue streams for chip vendors. “The biggest winners from the growth in edge AI are going to be those vendors that either own or are currently building intellectual properties for AI-related application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs),” said Jack Vernon, Industry Analyst at ABI Research.
Autodesk Takes Top Spot in ABI Research’s Generative Design Competitive Assessment
Ranked as the top generative design vendor, Autodesk scored highest in the overall category of Implementation and topped six of the twelve ranking criteria. “Autodesk emerged as the leader with innovative capabilities and integration of generative design tools within its Fusion 360 product,” said Pierce Owen, principal analyst at ABI Research.
Private LTE Will be a US$16.3 Billion Opportunity by 2025
By 2025, the private Long-Term Evolution (LTE) market comprising of healthcare, transport, and logistics, manufacturing, smart venues, smart cities, and oil and gas will be worth US$16.3 billion. “A new understanding of spectrum usage, spearheaded by the Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) activities in the United States, and increasing demand from industry verticals are the main drivers of private LTE,” said Pablo Tomasi, senior analyst at ABI Research.

Elementary Mr. Watson: Retro Routers vs. Modern Boards—The Silent Struggle on Your Screen
06/26/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonThere's a story about a young woman preparing a holiday ham. Before putting it in the pan, she cuts off the ends. When asked why, she shrugs and says, "That's how my mom always did it." She asks her mother, who gives the same answer. Eventually, the question reaches Grandma, who laughs and says, "Oh, I only cut the ends off because my pan was too small." This story is a powerful analogy for how many PCB designers approach routing today.
