Market Dynamics and Trends

The rapid growth of e-commerce and retail industry is expected to aid in the expansion of the global market for blockchain for business apps. Tech companies across the globe are focusing on launching various new technologies such as Web 3.0 to help e-commerce and retail start-ups to scale their businesses and develop innovative solutions. For instance, in July 2022, KiwiTech launched a Web 3.0 “Center of Excellence” service. This launch was aimed to authorize the next-generation blockchain revolutions for start-up companies.

Moreover, the growing awareness concerning the privacy and security of personal data from cyber threats among consumers and enterprises has assisted in the development of blockchain for business apps market as blockchain provides advance safety protocols to prevent data thefts.
