Asia Pacific’s IT, Business Services Market Delivers ‘Resurgent’ Q1, ISG Index Finds - Seite 2

2024 Global Forecast

ISG is forecasting 3 percent growth for managed services, down 125 basis points from its January forecast, and maintaining its forecast of 15 percent revenue growth for XaaS in 2024.

“Looking ahead, economic conditions are forecasted to be less volatile as the year progresses and inflation continues to slow, but challenges persist,” Gale said.

“In this environment, outsourcing could see a boost as companies seek to balance cost management and service quality. GenAI, meanwhile, is poised to be a growth catalyst, with large hyperscalers expected to manage increasing workloads. The data layer, integral for training AI models, presents a prime opportunity for service providers.”
