As per Statista, the global revenue from smart city technologies amounted to $37.5 billion in 2018. Since then, this figure has grown by 140 per cent and reached almost $90 billion last year.
According to the report, China will remain the largest and fastest-growing market. Chinese smart city revenues will increase by 18.5 per cent and $43.5 billion this year. Outside China, Europe has appeared as the leading smart city technology adopter, but North America still represents the second-largest market, the report said.
As per the projections, the sector will continue to grow, with worldwide smart city technology revenues increasing by an average of $15 billion per year to $165.8 billion in 2028.
