The global e-waste management market expected to expand at a CAGR of 5.7% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2026. Over the last decade, rapid technological advancements have not only transformed our communication abilities and increased rate of productivity, but has also resulted in massive increase in electronic goods cast-off into our waste stream. As per the research conducted by Credence Research, Inc., electronic waste is the fastest growing municipal waste, especially in developed economies like the U.S. One of the major factors spurring e-waste volumes and need for e-waste management is the continual penetration of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology across different industry verticals. IoT has become a mainstream technology in the IT industry, primarily used to connect all smart objects over an integrated network through the Internet. Additionally, in a bid to transform/upgrade existing business processes to connected ones, the demand for connected devices is presumed to surge, reaching 20.0 Bn units by 2020 and thereby driving e-waste volumes worldwide.

"Asia Pacific to Offer Strong Growth Opportunities for Participants across the Value Chain"
Asia Pacific is presumed to register strong growth during the forecast period from 2018 to 2026, offering strong growth prospects and investment opportunities for e-waste segregators, recycling firms and other participants involved in electronic scrap treatment. The anticipated growth opportunity is reflective of the huge IT, telecom, and consumer electronics market in these countries. Developed economies like Europe and North America will register slow but steady growth during the forecast period. The slow growth can be majorly attributed to several regulations like Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS), Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE) etc. that have kept e-waste generation in-check. On the other hand, emerging economies like Middle East and Africa will experience strong growth due to government policies that promote systematic collection, segregation, and recycling of scrap.
