Upcoming Growth in the Outdoor LED Screen Market


In 2016, the global outdoor LED Screen market was valued at $4 billion and by 2023, the market is bound to reach $14 billion. This means the market is registering a CAGR of 21.7% from the year 2017 until the year 2023.

LED is a semiconductor chip that uses the Light Emitting Diode technology to emit lights in a visible range of a different wavelength. This also emits infrared and ultraviolet radiation. LED screens are common in the marketing world because they display multimedia graphics including traffic signs, scoreboards and promotional advertising. You will see LED mounted on exhibits, roads, homes, and stadiums for entertainment. Mounting an LED screen is meant to expand scope to a wide population.

The progress in technology has in recent years contributed to the increasing popularity of outdoor LEDs. We now have energy efficient LED screens instead of high on energy video displays. Features such as improved image quality, wireless control systems, automatic LED screens and high luminosity mean a bright future for outdoor LED screens.

Such advancements in LED technology have driven their use in live events, including digital signage, sports stadiums, and concerts, as well as daily weather updates. There are, however, other drawbacks that deter investors from investing in LED screens like unpredictable demand and high initial investment. These two factors are major constraints on the growth of the demand for outdoor LED screens.
