Dublin, April 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “Live Streaming Market Report 2026” has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The live streaming market is on a trajectory of significant growth, projected to expand from $2.09 billion in 2025 to $2.58 billion in 2026, marking a CAGR of 23.1%. This surge is primarily driven by increased internet access, widespread smartphone usage, and the popularity of social media, gaming, and e-sports platforms.
Looking ahead, the market is anticipated to reach $5.92 billion by 2030, maintaining the same CAGR of 23.1%. Factors such as the demand for AR/VR streaming, advancements in cloud computing, and AI-driven content personalization are key contributors to this forecasted growth. Additional trends include the rise of social media live streaming, interactive e-learning platforms, and the global expansion of OTT services.
Mobile video consumption is playing a crucial role in this expansion, with consumers increasingly watching content on smartphones and tablets. The advent of high-speed mobile internet and affordable devices has facilitated this trend, as evidenced by the UK’s $15.9 billion growth in music, video, and games markets reported in January 2024. Live streaming optimizes real-time video delivery, offering seamless and immersive mobile experiences.
Industry leaders are focusing on enhancing broadcasting solutions to solidify their market standing. For instance, in January 2023, IBM launched its Video Streaming application, a robust solution designed to deliver secure, high-quality live content seamlessly across various digital platforms. This move underscores IBM’s commitment to providing scalable and reliable streaming experiences for corporate and virtual events.
Collaborations are further shaping the industry’s landscape. In June 2024, MainStreaming S.p.A. partnered with Fincons to bolster live and on-demand streaming services. This synergy combines Fincons’ technical prowess with MainStreaming’s advanced video delivery technology, enabling diverse sectors to provide premium content with personalization and security enhancements.
