The Live Streaming Market is expected to reach $4.26 billion, at a CAGR of 22.4% during the forecast period of 2021 to 2028. Live streaming technology lets you watch, create and share videos in real time, a bit like live TV. All you need to be able to live stream is an internet enabled device, like a smart phone or tablet, and a platform (such as a website or app) to live stream from.
Facebook Live, Instagram Live stories, Twitch TV (frequently utilised by the gaming community), House Party, and Tik Tok are some of the most popular live streaming apps currently available. Live streaming, unlike pre-recorded videos that can be trimmed and altered, is exactly that — live and unedited.
The steady growth of the live streaming market is mainly attributed to by the surging popularity of e-sports and video games, the growing preference for live-streamed content, and increasing smartphones adoption and internet penetration.
