Global metaverse market poised to create $750 billion opportunity by 2030

By 2030, the metaverse will represent an approximately $750 billion market opportunity as businesses from various consumer groups seize the opportunity to broaden their reach.

Gen Z members in particular are expected to use the metaverse as a platform to interact with social networks, watch media, and take part in virtual competitions and sports.

According to a recent report by Frost & Sullivan titled Global Metaverse Growth Opportunities, the metaverse will eventually connect a network of virtual worlds to the real-world economy.

Organizations will be able to engage in economic activity just like they would in the real world.

Frost & Sullivan ICT Research Director Kiran Kumar said, “Big technology companies see huge potential in the metaverse, deeming it the next level of the internet.”

“Gaming, media & entertainment, and retail are the sectors which have witnessed high adoption and promise high growth potential over the next 12 months, based on Frost & Sullivan’s assessment of the application ecosystem.”

Kumar added, “Interoperability is the defining property of the metaverse. The success of the metaverse would rely on the ability to unify systems, platforms, and economies in terms of incentives and benefits tied to the physical world, which remains a critical challenge to be addressed.”

To take advantage of the metaverse’s limitless opportunities, Frost & Sullivan’ says market participants should:

  • Decentralize the metaverse experience and create a more open and interoperable ecosystem than the traditional application ecosystem dominated by a few platforms.
  • Expand the services model beyond traditional capabilities and provide clients with unique revenue models in the metaverse as services will play a crucial role in the metaverse ecosystem.
  • Focus on mitigating the creation of deep fake copies of digital assets and avatars and design virtual worlds with machine learning (ML) to automate user privacy measures in dynamic and diversified contexts within the metaverse.
