The increased adoption of IT solutions among SMEs in Germany is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as the shortage of skilled IT professionals may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The increased adoption of IT solutions among SMEs in Germany is notably driving the Germany IT market growth. SMEs are the backbone of the German economy and represent more than 99% of all companies in the country. These companies range from sole proprietorships to companies with hundreds of employees and export their products and services around the world. German medium-sized companies are known for introducing and actively promoting innovation at the product and process levels. They invest in IT to stay up to date with the latest technology. Small and medium-sized businesses in Germany are making extensive use of technologies such as cloud computing, big data, and the Internet of Things (IoT) to improve operational efficiency and find new ways to generate revenue. The goals behind investing in these technologies include reducing IT infrastructure costs, extracting accurate business insights from enterprise data, and improving production efficiency and business processes. Digitization is one of the key priorities for German medium-sized companies. Many companies are replacing manual processes with digital workflows using software and IT services. Other companies are taking a holistic approach and looking to digitize the entire value chain, including the procurement, production, and delivery of products and services. Automotive groups such as Volkswagen, for example, have set up several self-managed production facilities to automate individual steps of the manufacturing process. German SMEs are increasingly deploying ERP solutions and CRM software to improve customer engagement and retention. These companies are reducing operating costs by investing in communication platforms to facilitate online and real-time collaboration, and by using social media platforms to promote their products and services. Many such factors drive the growth of the Germany-IT market during the forecast period.
Government support for AI is identified as the key trend in the Germany-IT market. Despite the general adoption of AI among German companies, the federal government encourages companies to consider all application areas for AI-based solutions. According to a 2018 study commissioned by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy, AI is expected to boost the country's manufacturing output by more than USD 34.35 billion by 2023. The federal government has announced that in its 2020 budget, it will provide USD 572.5 million to boost its AI strategy beyond 2020. The government plans to invest up to USD 3.44 billion by 2025 to implement this strategy. Germany is modernizing its AI competence centers at the regional level by establishing separate centers in each region and connecting them to a common network. With federal backing, many providers are opening their AI research centers in the country. Government efforts are supporting R&D to develop AI and promote AI adoption in German companies, which will drive the growth of the Germany-IT market during the forecast period.
The shortage of skilled IT professionals may impede the Germany-IT market growth. German companies are currently facing a serious shortage of IT specialists. A lack of professional qualifications is reducing the number of vacancies for candidates. Professionals with the necessary qualifications, work experience, and skills are highly remunerated. Therefore, it is difficult for SMEs and public sector companies to recruit suitable candidates. The federal government plans to recruit staff from other parts of Europe to fill these vacancies and is taking steps to simplify immigration laws for foreigners seeking employment in the country. The number of job openings in the IT sector has increased, reaching more than 1.3 million in 2020. But most of the vacancy still remains vacant. The shortage of qualified IT professionals in the areas of cloud, AI, big data, and IoT can seriously hamper German companies' digital transformation efforts. This may adversely affect the Germany-IT market growth during the forecast period.
