Key Highlights
- Digital signage has played an important factor in influencing the purchase decision, and institutions, like the government, healthcare, public transit, and retail stores, are now heavily relying on digital signages to better engage their targeted audiences to communicate their message.
- As digital signage enables content and messages to be displayed on an electronic screen or digital sign and can be changed without modification to the physical sign, aggressive growth over the next few years across various emerging economies is anticipated. The adoption of digital signage is becoming more popular and mainstream with the technological advancements and decrease in price.
- The vendors offering digital signage solutions are continuously investing in product innovations.

However, the scenario expanded the scope of marketing through digital signage across many industries, especially in hospitals and public places, which utilized the technology for displaying important information.

India to Hold the Highest Market Share

- According to Scala, India represents one of the largest gems and jewelry sector markets and contributed 29% of global jewelry consumption. This sector contributes 7% to the Indian economy and provides jobs to more than 40 lakh people.
- Purchasing jewelry has been an inherent part of Indian tradition and culture.
