MEA Communications Interface Market Overview
The MEA communications interface market is segmented into Saudi Arabia, South Africa, the UAE, and the Rest of the MEA. The countries have experienced a rising adoption of advanced automated technologies for enhancing their manufacturing capabilities. In October 2021, the Ministry of Industry of Saudi Arabia announced its intention to automate 4,000 factories across the country within the next five years. The automation of factories comprises the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, robots, 3D-printing technologies, and internet of things (IoT). Additionally, the UAE has increased its investments in the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) or Industry 4.0 to expand the manufacturing capabilities of the country. These factors are propelling the demand for robots and other IoT devices across the Middle East & Africa, thereby contributing to the growth of the MEA communication interface market. Over the years, the Middle East & Africa have increased their investments in the installation of smart grids across countries, such as the UAE. In April 2022, the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority announced the launch of the next phase of its smart grid strategy worth US$ 1.9 billion. These factors are expected to boost the demand for PLCs and offer lucrative business opportunities to PLC manufacturers across the region, which would propel the demand for communication interfaces during the forecast period. Additionally, South Africa has experienced a rise in manufacturing capabilities over the years. The production volume of South Africa increased by 2.9% in September 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. These factors are fueling the demand for automation technologies across the sector, which is further expected to contribute to the growth of the MEA communications interface market during the forecast period.
