Market Dynamics

Latin America Digital Signage Solution Market Drivers:

Increasing Digitalization

In recent years, technical progress, the development of the internet, growing awareness among consumers, and increasing globalization have driven significant progress in the digitalization trend in the Latin American region. Digitalization is causing significant impacts on business operations in the industry, society, and the working environment through emerging technology trends such as the Internet of Things, AI, data analytics employing Big Data, and AR (Augmented Reality). The United Nations Economic Commission of Latin America and the Caribbean reported that almost 62% of Latin American and Caribbean households had access to fixed broadband connectivity in 2021. The recent growth indicates a positive outlook for developing digital infrastructure in the area, although it is significantly below developed regions such as North America and Europe.

GSMA states that mobile Internet penetration can increase a country's GDP by 1.2% with a 10% increase, while a 10% increase in digitalization can generate 1.9% in GDP growth. Latin American countries are expected to be encouraged by such stats to accelerate their digitization efforts further, creating a favorable scenario for the studied market.
