Healthcare is analysed to hold highest market share in 2019 majorly attributed to the increasing demand for high precision microscopes involved in the R&D sector. In November 2019, Swerim invested $0.8 million in the laboratory for electron microscopy which includes two brand-new high-resolution scanning electron microscopes (FEG-SEM) and an upgrade of the transmission electron microscope. These investments in expansion of the research facilities is further set to boost the market growth rate. Adding to this, the significant implementation of the NEMS based sensors in airbags in the automotive sector is set to impact on the growth of the market. In 2019, the government of India mandated the features such as speed alert, reverse parking sensors, front air bags as standard for any vehicle. These regulations alongside the deployment of NEMS to build accelerometers in automobile airbags, pressure sensors, flow rate sensors and so on is set to boost the market during the forecast period 2020-2025 as NEMS are used to create micro-miniature mechanical devices primarily from silicon.

APAC is analysed to be the dominant region in 2019, followed by Americas and Europe. This is mainly attributed to the vast research and developments activities in the countries such as China, Japan, India and so on alongside the large infrastructural development. The presence of major players in the region is also contributing to the market share of the region. Adding to this, APAC is the major shareholder in the automotive sector and the high deployment of the NEMS in the advanced vehicle technologies is further impacting on the growth rate of the market. As APAC is a major hub for manufacturing of consumer electronics such as mobile phones, computers alongside the rising miniaturization in this sector is set to escalate the market growth rate during the forecast period 2020-2025. In 2019, Sony has launched world’s smallest premium compact camera, the RX0 II (model DSC-RX0M2). These developments are further set to impact on the growth of the market.

The trend of miniaturization is certainly a key driving factor for the NEMS market. The significant rise in the demand for the miniature electronic gadgets is set to boost the market growth rate. The launch of the small camera and the integration of the NEMS technology in the manufacturing process is set to boost the market during the forecast period. The trend of miniaturization in the consumer electronics sector owing to the rise in demand for portable and slim smart phones, laptops and so on are set to escalate the market growth rate. Adding to this, the significant number of product developments by the major competitors such as HP, Apple, Lenovo and so on to launch the slimmest laptops are set to boost the market growth rate.

The significant rise in the demand for miniaturized products in the surgical instruments is set boost the market growth rate during the forecast period. In June 2017, Omivision has launched OV6948, one of the world's smallest commercial image sensors for wide range of applications, including dental, veterinary, forensic and so on. These image sensors overcome many challenges posed by reusable medical imaging equipment, including cross-contamination risks and inefficiencies due to high maintenance costs. Owing to these advantages, the growing demand for the nano surgical equipment is set to boost the growth rate during the forecast period 2020-2025.

The manufacturing process of NEMS requires high precision tools and is costlier when compared to MEMS. This resulted in the absence of the mass manufacturing techniques thereby impacting on the minimal production of NEMS. Therefore the inefficient supply of the NEMS meeting the requirements is set to hinder the growth of the market during the forecast period.

Technology launches, acquisitions, and R&D activities are key strategies adopted by players in the NEMS market. NEMS driver market is expected to be dominated by major companies such as Agilent Technologies Incorporation, Robert Bosch, Texas Instruments, Bruker Corporation, and Sun Innovation Incorporation among others.
