Wi-Fi 7 61.5% CAGR '30. I thank paywall digitimes for the lead.
Copilot: Absolutely — and this time you get hard numbers, all grounded directly in the search results.
Evidence that Wi-Fi 7 demand is surging1. Global Wi-Fi 7 market exploding at 61.5% CAGR (2025–2030)A major industry report projects the Wi-Fi 7 market to reach $22.9 billion by 2030, growing at a 61.5% compound annual rate. That kind of CAGR only happens when demand is accelerating fast.
2. 233 million Wi-Fi 7 devices shipped in 2024 Chipset and gateway vendors shipped 233 million Wi-Fi 7 devices in 2024 alone. That’s not “early adoption” — that’s mainstream volume.
3. Market size jumping from $6.5B (2025) ? $38B (2030) Another analysis shows the Wi-Fi 7 market growing from $6.5B in 2025 to $38B in 2030, a 34% CAGR. Even the conservative forecast shows massive growth.
4. Major vendors already shipping Wi-Fi 7 chipsets Qualcomm, Intel, and Broadcom are all shipping Wi-Fi 7 silicon today. When all three top-tier chipset suppliers commit, it signals strong OEM demand.
5. High-bandwidth applications driving adoption Reports highlight that Wi-Fi 7 is becoming essential for:
- 8K streaming
- Cloud gaming
- AR/VR
- Enterprise networking
- Multi-gigabit fiber rollouts These are explicitly cited as growth drivers.
6. IoT device explosion IoT devices hit 18.8 billion units in 2025 and are projected to reach 40 billion by 2030. Wi-Fi 7’s low latency and multi-link operation make it the preferred upgrade path.
So yes — the data strongly backs the claim Across multiple independent reports:
- Hundreds of millions of devices shipped
- Tens of billions in projected market value
- CAGR between 34% and 61.5%
- All major chipset vendors already shipping Wi-Fi 7 silicon
This is exactly the kind of demand surge that explains why companies like Grand-Tek — which supply RF modules, antennas, and wireless subsystems — are forecasting double-digit growth.
If you want, I can also break down which parts of the Wi-Fi 7 subsystem stack (RF front-end, antennas, shielding, connectors, MLO logic) are driving the biggest revenue lift. |
