Moreover, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic will also help the medical gloves market progress at a healthy CAGR of 10.8% during 2020–2030. The market was valued at $6,633.4 million in 2019 and it is projected to generate $20,435.6 million revenue by 2030. Currently, medical professions are using protective medical items, such as surgical and examination gloves, to contain the spread of coronavirus, as it is transmitted through direct contact. Additionally, the recent outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), Ebola, Zika, and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS) has also augmented the usage of medical gloves worldwide.

In contemporary times, medical professionals are preferring nitrile gloves over latex, vinyl, and neoprene ones, due to their non-allergic properties. Additionally, nitrile gloves exhibit high puncture resistance and they are considered ideal for surgical and medical examination applications. Hospitals, clinics and diagnostic centers and ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) use a wide variety of sterile and non-sterile medical gloves produced by Kimberly-Clark Corporation, Riverstone Holdings Limited, B. Braun Melsungen AG, Dynarex Corporation, Paul Hartmann AG, SHIELD Scientific B.V., and Medline Industries Inc.

According to P&S Intelligence, North America will dominate the medical gloves market in the foreseeable future, due to the surging prevalence of respiratory diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma, in the region. For instance, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 25,131,132 people were suffering from asthma in the U.S. in 2019. Besides, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and the presence of a large number of medical glove producing companies are also propelling the sales of these products in the region. 

Furthermore, the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is expected to create an extensive requirement for medical gloves in the forthcoming years, due to the booming geriatric population, soaring cases of COVID-19, and increasing volume of surgical procedures and diagnostic examinations. The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) forecasts that the number of people aged more than 60 years in APAC will reach around 1.3 billion by 2050. Additionally, the improving healthcare infrastructure will also contribute toward the booming demand for medical gloves in the region. 

Therefore, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and rising incidence of chronic illnesses will propel the usage of medical gloves in the forthcoming years.

Rising Prevalence of Cyberattacks Propelling Network Telemetry Usage

With the rising internet penetration, the prevalence of cyberattacks is growing all over the world. According to the World Bank, around 57.0% of the global population had access to the internet in 2019. During cyberattacks, the networks and servers of organizations are breached and critical data is stolen, thereby causing enormous losses. Attackers are stealing information and hacking servers from various sources at the workplace, such as internet of things-enabled gadgets, that are commonly used within a centralized network. 

Thus, in order to mitigate the incidence of cyberattacks and protect data, enterprises are increasingly adopting network telemetry solutions and services, thus fueling the expansion of the network telemetry market. Besides, the burgeoning need for the optimization of the network infrastructure, owing to the rising internet traffic and demand for solving downtime issues, is also pushing up the requirement for network telemetry solutions. Downtime primarily occurs when the system becomes unavailable for a certain period of time, when real-time data is transmitted to multiple locations by network devices.

To solve this problem, the overall network infrastructure must be optimized, which can be done with the help of network telemetry solutions and services. Owing to these factors, the revenue of the network telemetry market reached $300 million in 2020. Managed service providers, cloud service providers, and telecom service providers are the major end users of network telemetry solutions. Amongst these, telecom service providers generated the highest demand for these solutions in the past, mainly because these solutions assist them in optimizing and managing their network infrastructure. 

This was because of the existence of several network telemetry market players, such as Pluribus Networks Inc., Arista Networks Inc., and Juniper Networks Inc., strong competition in almost every industry, and soaring use of advanced technologies, such as the IoT and AI, in the region. Across the globe, the leading market players are focusing on getting into partnerships in order to reach out to a large number of people and augment their revenue. For example, Forescout Technologies Inc., which is a provider of enterprise of things security solutions, entered into a partnership with Arista Networks Inc. in February 2021 for providing faster and effective zero-trust defense for enterprises. 

Hence, the demand for network telemetry services and solutions will surge sharply in the coming years, mainly because of the rising prevalence of cyberattacks and growing adoption of advanced technologies by enterprises.

Poor Power Grid Infrastructure Propelling Nigerian Diesel Genset Market To New Heights

The Nigeria diesel genset market value stood at $445.1 million in 2021, and it is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 6.8% from 2021 to 2030 (forecast period). According to the estimates of the market research organization, P&S Intelligence, the market will reach a value of $806.8 million by 2030. The market is being driven by the soaring requirement for power in various industries, growing power transmission losses, and substantial base power deficit in the country. 

The power infrastructure in Nigeria is considerably weak, on account of the existence of huge power transmission losses and high-value base power deficit in the country. Moreover, the country is witnessing a sharp surge in the demand for diesel gensets, owing to the rising urbanization rate and rapid economic progress. As per an article published in the International Trade Administration, the Nigerian government is making huge investments for boosting power production through small, medium, and large hydrostatic power plants with a total capacity of 6,024 MW in several cities, such as Kashimbila (40 MW), Makurdi (1,000 MW), and Mambila (3,050 MW). 

Furthermore, the increasing construction and oil and gas exploration and production activities are further boosting the need for diesel gensets in the country. Oil and gas fields are usually located in various remote locations and thus, the lack of proper grid connectivity is pushing up the demand for diesel gensets in the country. Depending on application, the Nigerian diesel genset market is classified into residential, industrial, and commercial. Out of these, the commercial category is holding the largest share in the market.

The Nigerian diesel genset market is currently witnessing the trend of decreasing imports of low-power diesel gensets. As per the UN Comtrade, the import value of gensets in the country has been plunging since 2015. The enactment of government regulations and policies aimed at mitigating the import of low-power gensets is one of the major factors fueling this trend. Furthermore, large, medium, and small gensets produce 699 g/kWh, 883 g/kWh, and 1,580 g/kWh of CO2 in the atmosphere, respectively. These low-power gensets are majorly used in hostels, small commercial facilities, such as salons, small offices, and restaurants, and houses. 

Hence, it can be safely said that the demand for diesel gensets will soar in Nigeria in the coming years, primarily because of the presence of a poor power grid infrastructure, huge power transmission losses, and increasing construction and commercial activities in the country.
