Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp rise in U.S. tariffs and the ensuing trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a significant impact on the information technology sector, especially in hardware manufacturing, data infrastructure, and software deployment. Increased duties on imported semiconductors, circuit boards, and networking equipment have driven up production and operating costs for tech companies, cloud service providers, and data centers. Firms that depend on globally sourced components for laptops, servers, and consumer electronics are grappling with extended lead times and mounting pricing pressures. At the same time, tariffs on specialized software and retaliatory actions by key international markets have disrupted global IT supply chains and dampened foreign demand for U.S.-made technologies. In response, the sector is ramping up investments in domestic chip production, broadening its supplier network, and leveraging AI-powered automation to improve resilience and manage costs more effectively.

The digital mental health market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $23.63 billion in 2024 to $27.55 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing chronic diseases, rising healthcare costs, government initiatives and regulations, consumer empowerment, data security and privacy concerns.
The digital mental health market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $50.47 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.3%.

Major trends in the forecast period include remote patient monitoring, technological advancements, behavioral health integration, interoperability and data exchange, integration of wearable technology.
The forecast of 16.3% growth over the next five years reflects a slight reduction of 0.1% from the previous projection. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. Increased tariffs could limit the availability of affordable connected devices like wearables and mobile health tools imported from China, restricting remote patient monitoring capabilities and inflating costs for digital mental health platforms. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
