THE MARKET OPPORTUNITY
MARKET OPPORTUNITY
More than 17 million wearable brands are expected to ship this year... and are projected to grow to 45 million shipments by 2017.
Samsung and Google have already entered the space... Apple is expected to announce its entry later this year.
Despite sustained media attention, wearable products are yet to gain traction. But, the problem isn’t about marketing.
It is about design.
