STEM‑Education Market Poised for 11.5 % CAGR Through 2030
Analysts predict double‑digit growth as schools invest in robotics kits, coding platforms and AR/VR science labs.
A USD 150 Billion Horizon
Market‑intelligence firm HTF’s new forecast values the global STEM‑education sector at USD 78 billion today and projects it to exceed USD 150 billion by 2030. Demand is driven by curricula that blend hands‑on kits with digital simulations to make abstract concepts tangible.
Policy Tailwinds & Edtech Players
Heavyweights like LEGO Education, Khan Academy and emerging AR/VR start‑ups are capturing school budgets once reserved for static textbooks. National policies—including India’s NEP and the U.S. CHIPS Act training funds—are formalising line‑items for maker labs and teacher upskilling.
Investor Confidence, Pedagogy Caveat
Investors view the sector as recession‑resilient: governments rarely cut education, and parents prioritise future‑proof skills. The report cautions, however, that success depends on robust teacher training; fancy hardware without pedagogy can underperform.
