Wi-Fi chipset market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 3.8% during the forecast period (2022-2028). One of the major drivers of the global Wi-Fi chipset market is the expanding adoption of Wi-Fi in businesses and enterprises. The Wi-Fi-based business models are getting more popular across all the business and enterprise sizes such as multinational banks to small start-up companies, and all segments of the application. To increase customer relationship management and customer engagement, Wi-Fi hotspots at hotels, buses, airports, trains, coffee shops retail stores, sports stadiums are increasingly being used, for instance Tesco has started to offer Wi-Fi hotspots in their stores to make the customer self-checkout easier through their smartphone app. Among the customers, the commercial spaces that offer free Wi-Fi are gaining more popularity which is expected to create more demand for Wi-Fi technology and fuel the growth of the global Wi-Fi chipset market. 

Consumers are now focusing on the value of the information due to the massive growth of connected devices. Consumers now have various access points information and are more relying on the internet through their mobile devices. The value of assisting consumers to collect information and making customer relationship management through mediums such as e-mails, social media pages, and location-based marketing are being realized by retailers. To connect with the consumers and support their purchasing decisions, in-store Wi-Fi is getting more popular. Consumers that are shopping digitally, thoroughly review their options, look for product and service reviews, access interactive store maps, check the product availability with the retailer, view discount and loyalty offers to finally make an online purchase decision.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Global Wi-Fi chipset Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has hindered the growth of the global Wi-Fi chipset market. In 2020, as the virus started spreading at a rapid rate, governments across the nations-imposed country-wide lockdowns. Due to the lockdowns manufacturing facilities were shut down completely for a long period and the restrictions on the trade stopped the international supply chain due to a ban on international trade. Thus, these circumstances declined the overall growth of the global Wi-Fi chipset market. But after the relaxation of the restrictions and economies started to reopen, the industry had to adapt to the circumstances, by providing their employees work from home and resuming the manufacturing process with less labour force. Therefore, the global Wi-Fi chipset is expected to make a rapid recovery.
