The global surge in the adoption of edutainment is anticipated to fuel the growth of the edutainment market in the forecast period. The fusion of entertainment and education creates an interactive learning environment for children, offering a significant advantage by integrating intellectually stimulating concepts into the learning process. Edutainment taps into children's natural curiosity, allowing them to embody their favorite characters or explore dream locations, fostering a sense of "happy energy" and boosting confidence. According to a 2021 report by Jing's Culture & Commerce, a U.S.-based technology trends publisher, even before the onset of COVID-19, museums worldwide invested $2 billion annually in education-focused activities. These institutions dedicated over 18 million hours to targeted education each year, covering aspects such as guided tours, staff visits, school outreach, and professional development for teachers. The increasing global embrace of edutainment is poised to be a driving force behind the market's growth.

The expanding education sector is poised to be a key driver in propelling the growth of the edutainment market in the foreseeable future. The education sector encompasses the entire system and infrastructure dedicated to providing formal instruction, fostering learning, and individual development. Edutainment, a fusion of education and entertainment, is reshaping the education landscape by introducing engagement, interactivity, and enhanced effectiveness. Edutainment platforms have the flexibility to adapt to individual learning paces and styles, catering to a diverse range of learners. For example, a report from the University of Technology Sydney, published in July 2023, highlighted that secondary education marked the highest level of school completion in the United States in 2022, with 28% of the population achieving this milestone. In the UK, 73.2% of secondary school-age residents attained a GCSE pass rate in 2022. With a total enrollment exceeding 3.95 million students in public and private schools as of 2021, Australia contributes significantly to the growing education sector, thereby fueling the expansion of the edutainment market.

Virtual Reality (VR) stands out as the cutting-edge technology in the edutainment market, offering students an immersive and memorable experience by creating a 360-degree digital learning environment that feels remarkably real. This computer-generated 3D setting envelops users and responds to their actions, typically through immersive head-mounted displays. A prime example is the 3D virtual simulation tool introduced by Virtual Medical Coaching Ltd. in March 2021, specifically tailored for radiography students. This technology guides students through a comprehensive learning process, covering anatomy, radiographic positioning, and pathology. Feedback from students underscores the effectiveness of 3D virtual radiography simulation as a valuable pedagogical tool in radiography education.

Leading companies in the edutainment market are adopting a strategic partnership approach to introduce STEM IoT sensor kits to educational institutions. This collaborative strategy involves leveraging the strengths and resources of major players for mutual benefits and success. For example, in January 2022, RAKwireless Technology Limited, a China-based IoT solution provider, joined forces with One Planet Education Network (OPEN), a Switzerland-based social enterprise. The objective of this partnership is to bridge the IoT education gap by providing OPEN-RAK DIY STEM Lab Sensor Wisblock kits to students globally. The aim is to address the digital divide by offering easily accessible kits, empowering students to learn practical IoT applications and apply them in their local communities for sustainable development initiatives. Early applications include student-created sensors for projects such as sustainable farming, climate change monitoring, and air quality assessments. The overarching goal of the program is to establish a global network for IoT sensor education and data analytics. This network fosters collaborative learning among students worldwide, enabling them to gain hands-on experience in constructing IoT devices, sharing data internationally, and developing skills to positively impact their communities using RAK technology, supported by OPEN's education and research initiatives.
