Global AI and IoT market growth and infrastructure expansion
Overview
Analysts continue to project rapid expansion of the AI sector. Gartner’s forecasts for 2026 see end-user spending on AI models and platforms reaching approximately $64 billion, a 63% rise from 2025. This includes a 117% increase in generative-AI model spend and a 210% rise in domain-specific language models. Total global IT spending is projected to climb to $6.37 trillion in 2026, driven largely by data-center systems and Infrastructure-as-a-Service. Recent financial reports underscore this infrastructure boom. CoreWeave reported a 112% year-over-year revenue increase to $2.58 billion, with its backlog surging 246% to $104.2 billion. Coherent also outperformed estimates, reporting $2.05 billion in revenue, driven by demand for AI-related optical transceivers. Long-term, the enterprise AI infrastructure market is expected to grow from approximately $18 billion in 2025 to $130 billion by 2035. New projections highlight significant growth in specialized sub-sectors. The AI Trust, Risk, and Security Management (AI TRiSM) market is expected to rise from $3.09 billion in 2026 to $11.61 billion by 2031. The global AI assistant market is projected to expand from $3.35 billion in 2025 to $21.11 billion by 2030, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 44.5%. Notably, the agentic CPU market is forecasted to reach approximately $1,155.2 billion by 2035, driven by the integration of autonomous AI agents. This hardware demand is reflected in logic chip sales, which reached $301.9 billion. Consequently, global data center electricity consumption is projected to nearly double from 415 TWh in 2024 to 945 TWh by 2030. Concurrently, the IoT sector shows parallel growth. The global IoT technology market, valued at $959.30 billion in 2025, is projected to reach $1,148.62 billion by 2030.
