The five key themes that define global tech market in the next couple of years include:

1. Moderate overall growth at below 5 percent. The worldwide tech market in constant currency terms would continue growing modestly throughout this year respectively at 4.5 and 4.7 percent respectively. The strong US dollar persisted in 2016, which result in lower dollar-denominated growth rates. Nevertheless, the dollar lost some steam this year, thus there is a projected 4.9 percent growth in terms of the US dollar.

2. The US tech market, although not posting strongest growth would grow by 5 percent and more. By far, the biggest tech market, the US would post steady 5.9 percent growth this year. Individual country-level growth rates would be all over the globe. Mexico, India, China, Sweden, Israel and Poland would have the fastest tech market 6 percent growth.

3. BT or Business Technology serves as a growth engine in the growing markets. The tech would account for more than half of the total new project spending this year. In countries with steady-growth in industry, tech and business leaders heavily invest in new projects, which support the BT Agenda. Traditional IT spending continues to dominate the total tech spending, particularly in emerging markets. The total BT spending is expected to reach by $827 billion all over the world this year.

4. Analytic and cloud adoption. This means that software and services cost would grow quicker. SaaS would carry overall software market in the next couple of years, with adoption spreading from CRM, financial managing purchasing, analytics and management of human capital. SaaS subscription revenues for apps would come close to equal the combined software license as well as maintenance revenues this year.

These will be critical tools for city management and urban planning. They would be vital for self-driving vehicles soon.

Virtual and augmented reality. There are already big advancements in augmented and virtual reality. There is no doubt that VR and AR would revolutionize the computing experience. Furthermore, it also offers new ways of interacting with technology and with one another. The techs are in the early stages but would bring in new innovation levels and jobs to the computing experience on the next decade.

Healthcare. The health information digitization opens new markets for devices that are health-related, from fitness trackers to hospital-grade technology.

Data centers. Data centers, data engineers and analysts would grow further. At present, almost each company requires more staff in dealing with the disciplines, particularly data analysis. The biggest companies in the world are collecting petabytes or terabytes of data of all kinds on a daily basis that should be searched, analyzed and utilized to boost their ability of creating services and products.
