Is the Robotics Industry Poised for a Surge in 2025? Here Are the Investment Opportunities
Scheduled to officially start on January 7, 2025, the Consumer Electronics Show (CES)—a premier tech event that showcases both current products and futuristic concepts from large and small tech firms—once again captured global attention.
At CES 2025, $NVIDIA Corp(NVDA)$
Nvidia vice-president of robotics Deepu Talla said: “The ChatGPT moment for physical AI and robotics is around the corner.”
According to the Financial Times, Nvidia is eyeing robotics as a key growth area amid rising competition in its artificial intelligence (AI) chip business. This US company plans to launch its next generation of compact computer for humanoid robots, Jetson Thor, in early 2025.
In fact, stocks related to robotics experienced a strong rally in December last year. $Richtech Robotics(RR)$
Is the 'Age of Robots' approaching in 2025?
The global market for robotics reached USD 71,2 billion in 2023, as reported by Market Research Future, and it's on an impressive growth trajectory. With the market expected to surpass USD 200 billion by 2030, thanks to a forecasted 18.4% CAGR between 2023-2030, this expansion reflects a robust increase in robotics integration across various sectors.
In February 2024, Nvidia joined $Microsoft(MSFT)$
Additionally, according to the $Tesla (TSLA.US)$ 2024 shareholder meeting, Musk anticipates that Tesla's Optimus could be produced in small batches by 2025, with deployments potentially exceeding 1,000 units.
Tesla's rapid iteration of robot products is expected to bring a "catfish effect" to the global robotics market, invigorating players in the humanoid robot sector. The development of humanoid robots is likely to continue advancing, with 2025 potentially becoming the first year of mass production.
