Middle East and Africa Headphones Market Growth

The internet and smartphone penetration in Saudi Arabia is 82.3% and 98.2%, respectively, which is higher than the global average of 58.4% and 82% respectively. This is leading to higher consumer spending on video games and music streaming platforms. The increasing demand for immersive experiences is expected to favour the demand for high-quality headphones over the forecast period.

Major market players are attempting to develop headphones with target speech-hearing technology. This technology embeds a small computer into commercial headphones or hearing aids, whose AI algorithms capture the voice signals of the speaker while cancelling out all external noises and sending them to the receiver on the other line. This facilitates seamless communication between people and is expected to drive the market growth.

Key players in the region are launching innovative headphones with sleek and comfortable designs, which can offer customisable and immersive listening experiences to users. Moreover, in the forecast period, technological advancements and innovations are anticipated to drive the development of headphones that can adapt to the hearing habits of users while gathering real-time data on physical parameters like brainwave activity, heart rate, and body temperature.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
