BEACON TECHNOLOGY MARKET OVERVIEW

The global beacon technology market size was valued at approximately USD 2.41 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 19.62 billion by 2033, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of about 25.8% from 2025 to 2033.

Beacons are wireless transmitters that communicate with other smart devices using low-energy Bluetooth technology. One of the most recent developments in proximity marketing and location technology is the use of beacons. Beacons are basic devices with only three parts: batteries, radio, and CPU (central processing unit). There are various types of beacons available in the global market, such as iBeacons or Eddystone beacons. These highly advanced beacons connect and transmit data to smart devices, making location-based interaction and searching more accurate and easier.The introduction of beacon innovation has changed how users conduct their business by enhancing client interaction through personalisation. The growing importance of location-based marketing in the retail industry can be credited with the growth potential. For physical shops, it has become essential to combine the benefits of a historical background in physical commerce with an advanced biological community. Additionally, interest in local agreements is growing, which lowers the expenses associated with promoting and advertising them.

COVID-19 Impact: The COVID-19 Underlying Condition Upsurged the Market Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the beacon technology market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The rise in CAGR is a byproduct of the beacon technology market growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The COVID-19 virus has spread to a number of countries since December 2019. Network security has always been a dynamic field. We couldn't expect anything less with such a big shift to remote labour imposed by Covid-19. Network security is critical for any serious organization, and network security requirements for remote workers differ from those for on-site employees. But the truth is more complex. This seismic shift is being driven not only by technological requirements, but also by a shift in our cultural perception of data privacy. In addition to the work from home arena has positively affected the beacon technology market share.

 LATEST TRENDS

The Disaster Notification System to Boost Market Growth

Using smartphone-based beacons, researchers have created a secure catastrophe alerting system. Globally, the frequency of disasters has been dramatically rising. Beacon technology plays a significant role in catastrophe prevention and management by helping the Internet of Things (IoT) identify disasters in their early phases. Furthermore, D-SASS (Disaster Secure Alarm Service System) uses beacons primarily to offer users' safety and notification services to the area affected by disasters. This technique lessens the incidence of false alerts while simultaneously giving first-responders more trustworthy and important information. UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) and beacons could also be used for monitoring and emergency response procedures. Furthermore, it is projected that the versatility of beacons would open up a wide range of potential for the development of beacon technology on a global scale.
