The $3.28 billion global video conferencing devices market is undergoing fundamental shifts due to massive work and workplace transformation. In 2023, most customers took a measured approach to video-enabling meeting rooms, focusing first on bringing employees back to the office. Adverse macroeconomic conditions, geopolitical instability, and budgetary constraints put additional pressure on market growth. Despite challenging market conditions, the value of video communications has become deeply entrenched across all industries, creating an upward market trajectory.
Ongoing progress in return-to-office plans combined with secular trends in hybrid work and team collaboration will boost the demand for intelligent video devices. The market is expected to see gradual improvements and is forecasted to return to growth mode in 2024. AI is the key market driver, removing many friction points that have hindered video adoption in the past. It is the overarching technology driving much of the innovation in meeting software and devices. Vendors are leading with AI-based feature sets to enhance the user experience, offer meeting equality, and provide automation and room insights.
The 5-year revenue compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is a robust 16.8 percent driven by greater video-enablement of meeting spaces for better hybrid work. Video conferencing penetration rate will more than double from 2020 to 2028.
