Industries such as manufacturing, healthcare and facilities management are currently finding great value in IoT. The research projects that the number of IoT connections will rise from about 9.8 billion in 2018 to 15 billion by 2020 and 45 billion by 2025. Looking at the huge volume of IoT devices, its refurbished market is likely to emerge as a highly significant segment in its own right and likely to grow at much faster rate than the parent market.
A possible effect of a more organised refurbished IoT market is likely to result in market cannibalisation: some new adopters may elect to buy refurbished IoT devices rather than new, just to experience the outputs while also keeping cost under control. However, some of those that purchase refurbished IoT devices may later decide to purchase new next time round. Furthermore, familiarity with a used IoT device may act as a brand gateway and encourage the purchase of other IoT devices from the same vendor.
An organised refurbished IoT market would not only help in further boosting the IoT adoption among price sensitive buyers, but it'll also help IoT device manufacturer to clear their inventory - surplus or defective.
