According to Grand View Research, the global IT services market size was estimated at $1.50 trillion in 2024 and is projected to reach $2.59 trillion by 2030 at a compound annual growth rate of 9.4% from 2025 to 2030. The global IT market’s growth is being significantly driven by the increasing adoption of AI. A major trend is the focus on AI in business processes, with companies introducing innovative next-gen language models to drive revenue.
A report by Research and Markets noted that AI is a part of the fourth industrial revolution. The IT market is being propelled by the escalating adoption of IoT devices, which rely on IT for infrastructure, connectivity, and analytics. The report also highlights the growing importance of open-source alternatives, with companies like the Y Combinator-incubated startup Supabase securing $6 million in funding to develop new open-source tools. Additionally, the growth of the IT market is fueled by the increased demand for cloud computing services, a sector where AI manages and operates data storage.
Earlier on August 19, Dan Ives, Wedbush Securities’ global head of technology research, joined CNBC’s ‘Closing Bell’ to suggest that the next 2 to 3 years will be a tech bull market. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives discussed the AI market in particular, in response to a warning from OpenAI CEO Sam Altman that investors are overexcited about the AI trade. Ives disagreed with Altman’s assessment and stated that he believes the AI market is only in the second inning of a nine-inning game. He feels that the impact of the AI revolution over the medium and long term is actually being underestimated, particularly as it begins to play out with enterprise use cases and ultimately in the consumer and autonomous sectors.
