Market Opportunity
The global demand for clean water continues to rise, driven by population growth, urbanisation, and climate change. Alongside this, there is a burgeoning market for data-driven solutions that can optimise resource management and improve operational efficiencies.
Growing Global Demand for Clean Water: As the need for clean and safe drinking water intensifies, there is a pressing demand for innovative solutions that can ensure its availability. The global water market is projected to reach $914.9 billion by 2023, driven by a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.4% from 2019 to 2023. BigWater Token addresses this need by providing a decentralised, technology-driven approach to water management.
Monetizable Data Insights: The ability to capture, analyse, and monetize data collected from the water management ecosystem presents a significant market opportunity. The global data analytics market is expected to grow from $24.63 billion in 2018 to $77.64 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 25.3%. These insights can be utilised by various stakeholders, including governments, NGOs, and private enterprises, to enhance decision-making and optimise water resource management.
Addressing Inefficiencies in Water Distribution and Capital Access Traditional water management systems often suffer from inefficiencies and a lack of transparency. The global smart water management market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 11.2% from 2024 to 2029, reflecting the increasing need for efficient solutions. BigWater Token's decentralised approach, underpinned by blockchain technology, offers a solution that ensures efficient resource allocation and improved capital access, thereby addressing these critical issues.
Supporting Gender Equality and Financial Empowerment The BigWaterForHer initiative capitalises on significant market opportunities by boosting female involvement in water management. The World Bank notes that equating female economic participation with males could increase global GDP by $28 trillion by 2025. UN Water highlights that projects with active female participation are more likely to succeed, enhancing sustainability. According to the Global Impact Investing Network, the market for gender-focused CSR initiatives reached $12 billion in 2022, with McKinsey reporting that investments in women-centric projects yield 35% higher returns.
