Global IoT Sensor Market to 2027: A $65+ Billion Opportunity
March 18, 2019 | Business WireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The global IoT sensors market accounted for $9.46 billion in 2018 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 23.9% over the forecast period 2019-2027, to account for $65.79 billion in 2027.
Factors including proliferation of IoT and connected devices and growth in the consumer electronics industry are significantly driving the global IoT sensors market. However, growing security concerns is impeding the IoT sensors market growth. Widening government support for the adoption of IoT is opportunistic for the growth of the IoT sensors market.
The IoT sensors market is fragmented with the presence of several industries and the competitive dynamics in the market, which is expected to change during the upcoming years. The advent of IoT has enabled each device to be connected over the internet and the rising adoptions globally would result in more than billions of devices connected over the internet. Also, validating to the above mentioned point is the fact that the data traffic rate on a global level, has grown at an annual rate of more than 65% over the last five years.
Also, between 2018 and 2023, the data traffic is anticipated to grow at a compound annual growth rate of close to 40 percent. This exponential growth in data traffic over the internet is out rightly attributed to the growing penetration of smartphones and other consumer electronic devices that can be connected over the internet as a result of the growing popularity of IoT.
Furthermore, apart from the individuals, businesses across almost all the industry verticals have realized the importance of IoT, communications, and sensors, and have therefore, paved way for integration of sensors into the devices. The growth of the IoT sensors market in the various end-user industry verticals is therefore anticipated to rise at a rapid rate in the coming years with IoT gaining more prominence in the coming years.
Some of the players present in IoT sensors market are Analog Devices, Inc., ARM Holdings PLC, Broadcom, Inc., Honeywell International, Inc., Infineon Technologies AG, NXP Semiconductors N.V., Omron Corporation, Robert Bosch Gmbh, STMicroelectronics N.V., and Texas Instruments Incorporated among others.

Better Sustainability Policies for Electronics
10/29/2025 | Diana Radovan, Global Electronics AssociationI joined the Global Electronics Association in August 2025 as the director of sustainability policy. Since then, much has happened in terms of geopolitics and in the development and re-envisioning of sustainability policies in the industry. While the European Commission has released several legislative packages to simplify sustainability requirements (“omnibus”), these developments haven’t yet settled and are not in effect. Given the many recent and ongoing public consultations, with often conflicting input from a broad range of stakeholders, final negotiations remain rather polarized among policymakers.
