The global Internet of Things market by revenue will be worth $1.1 trillion by 2024, with much of the growth coming from wearables, according to GlobalData.

The market was worth $622 billion in 2020, up from $586 billion in 2019, and will grow to reach $1,077 billion by 2024, with a CAGR of 13% over the period. The enterprise IoT dominates the overall IoT market and generates 76% of total revenue in 2020.

This dominance of the enterprise IoT will continue for the foreseeable future. GlobalData expects this segment to still occupy 73% of the overall IoT market in 2024.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the crucial role the IoT has come to play in our lives. Several IoT use cases saw growing adoption during the pandemic, including using connected thermal cameras to detect potential COVID-19 infections and sensors for monitoring office occupancy levels
