• We are witnessing increasing adoption of AI, IoT, contactless payments, health tracking etc., which can disrupt the demand for wearable devices, in turn impacting the growth of the market.
• It is predicted that by 2026, there will be 1.2 billion wearable products shipped worldwide.
• Currently, businesses have low access to primary intelligence to clarify some unknowns and adjacencies in these opportunity areas –
• Adoption levels of automation in wearables is low. Currently, it ranges between 30-40% globally, however, in developed countries it is approaching 50%. As automation reduces TAT and helps in minimization of errors and provides reproducible results, it is largely used in consumer electronics and healthcare applications
• Increasing focus on personalized health tracking drive the wearables market

2. Where to play:
o Which applications and technologies should we focus on? Should it be AR/VR, smartwatches, smart bands, or any other?
o Which regions should we place our bets on? Should we continue with developed countries or do developing countries offer more growth opportunities?
3. Building a compelling Right-to-Win (RTW):
o For M&A, which are the right targets for us? Should we target AR/VR companies or smartwatches, smart bands companies? Should we enter new markets directly or through partners?
o How can we differentiate from top players? What is their right-to-win vs ours?
Key uncertainties/perspectives which industry leaders seek answers to:
1. For Wearable companies:
o Which wearable technology will be relevant and redundant in the next 5 years?
o Can wearable devices become affordable?
o How can companies optimize the manufacturing processes to be more agile and efficient to achieve a more features which higher efficiency?
o What regulatory policies can help strategize and achieve higher sales?
o What can be done to increase the awareness of wearable devices in healthcare applications?
2. For Companies in Adjacent markets:
o What are the regulations surrounding data privacy and security?
