Primary Market Research: Wearable Technology 2016-2017 - Only 1.5% of U.S. Consumers are Very Likely to Purchase a Smartwatch In 2016-17 - Research and Markets


Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Primary Market Research: Wearable Technology" report to their offering.

This report aims to show where the real market trends in wearable tech and other similar products are through primary research, and not by just making educated guesses or estimates. There have been multiple studies, articles and blogs written over the past few years about the growth and expected growth of wearable tech. Some have been somewhat correct, but many have incorrectly forecasted market segments and sub-segments, and few if any have done a comprehensive analysis of what consumers actually want.

Help our clients to make the right decisions regarding any product, whether new or already in the market. Even something as simple as the right color band on a watch or fitness band can make the difference between being successful right now or waiting months to start selling a product.

This market research analysis is not mere estimates of the market sizes and shares and estimated growth over the next number of years. Our intention is to describe to consumer lectronics OEMs, research professionals such as financial analysts, industry professionals/consultants and many others what the wearable tech market is demanding right now from consumers in the United States. The U.S. was chosen as our focus market given that the bulk of wearable tech sales is said to at this point be in North America (-60%). However, this is changing as organic wearable tech growth in Asia is now said to be overtaking any other part of the world.
