The Asia Pacific to Provide Significant Growth Opportunities to the Metamaterial Industry

Geographically, North America accounts for a significant share in the industry owing to the large investment in the defence sector. Meanwhile, the Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing market in the metamaterial industry due to a rise in the defence budget of Asian countries, specifically India and China. The emergence of 5G technology has also favoured the market growth in the Asia Pacific region. In addition, the Asia Pacific region has more cell phone users than both North America and Europe, and with the rollout of 5G, the investment made in this region will increase exponentially, leading to new growth prospects during the forecast period.

Metamaterial: Market Segmentation

Metamaterials are artificial materials designed to possess characteristics not found in naturally occurring materials. These characteristics are unique and rare because they are not derived from its components but obtained from the structure of constituent materials that are infused into them. Intelligent characteristics deriving from its exact shape, orientation,  and geometry helps it manipulate electromagnetic waves. Thus, they serve efficient application in photovoltaic cells, sensors,  and communication systems.
