In 2023 and the coming years, new applications of technologies to make buildings smarter should emerge. According to a study by Fortune Business Insights, in addition to stricter government regulations around the world and concerns about high energy, environmental and sustainability costs, the wider adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and advances in Artificial (AI) will drive demand for smart building solutions, projecting a market valued at $328.6 billion by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate of 22.2% between 2021 and 2029.
By 2023, after more than three years of the pandemic, overall healthcare spending is expected to fall in real terms due to inflation and slow economic growth. Concerning the digital health venture capital market, the amounts invested are expected to remain at the same level as in 2020, between $15 billion and $25 billion. There are many opportunities promised by the association between technology and patients that could be exploited in the year ahead. But the digitalisation of the healthcare sector is still likely to come under pressure from tighter regulation in many parts of the world regarding the use of patient data.
