Thailand Information Technology Report Q1 2016 - New Study Released

We expect Thailand's IT market will exhibit robust medium term growth as it continues to strengthen in 2016 after the challenges in 2013 and 2014 that suppressed IT spending growth. We forecast a CAGR of 6.8% from 2016-2019, with the market expected to reach a value of THB220.1bn in 2019. There will be considerable opportunities across all three IT market segments , but we highlight the retail hardware market and cloud computing services as the stand out opportunities. The strong household income growth forecast will enable vendors to target sales to both first-time buyers and multiple device households right across Thailand, while investments in datacentre and network infrastructure, alongside increased supply of solutions, will unlock the potential of cloud computing services. The outlook is positive but we caution downside risks exist, most notably political risks around the military government, while global economic headwinds have the potential to negatively impact Thailand's economic growth trajectory.
