The continuous glucose monitor system market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• In recent times, there's been an exponential growth in the market size of the continuous glucose monitor (CGM) system. It's projected that it will increase from $8.83 billion in 2024 to $9.67 billion in 2025, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.4%.
The growth observed in the historical period can be traced to factors like a rising elderly population, enhanced understanding of diabetes management, an increase in disposable income, an uptick in research and development investment, and a surge in health care spending.
The continuous glucose monitor system market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size of the continuous glucose monitor (CGM) system is predicted to experience speedy expansion in the forthcoming years, reaching a valuation of $17.00 billion in 2029 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.1%.
This growth during the forecast period can be accredited to the escalating diabetes prevalence, mounting obesity cases, rising socio-economic shifts, increasing number of clinical trials, and growing urbanization. Significant trends throughout the projected period incorporate the integration with smart gadgets, rising usage of artificial intelligence (AI), the advent of non-invasive monitoring solutions, wearables technology's growth, the emergence of telemedicine, and remote healthcare solutions.
The escalating rates of diabetes are anticipated to boost the continuous glucose monitor system market's expansion in the future. The inability of the body to produce or utilize insulin effectively leads to diabetes, a chronic illness with high blood sugar levels as a key feature. The surge in diabetes can mainly be associated with factors such as increasing obesity rates, unhealthy eating habits, lack of physical activity, and an aging demographic. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems offer real-time glucose measurements, aid in diabetes management by identifying patterns and alerting users to unusual levels, and reduce the need for frequent finger pricks. For example, the National Health Service, a UK-based government department, discovered over half a million (549,000) additional individuals in England who were at risk of developing type 2 diabetes in June 2024. This increased the total number of people with non-diabetic hyperglycemia, or pre-diabetes, registered with a GP to 3,615,330, marking a significant climb from 3,065,825 in 2022, indicating a nearly 20% increase. As such, the escalating rates of diabetes are fueling the continuous glucose monitor system market's growth.

Leading companies in the continuous glucose monitor system market are prioritizing the development of sophisticated over-the-counter (OTC) continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) in an effort to enhance availability and broaden their customer base among non-prescription users. OTC CGMs are devices that enable real-time tracking of glucose levels without prescription and offer users a simple, convenient way to independently monitor their glucose levels. For example, in September 2024, Abbott Laboratories, a medical device company based in the US, rolled out Lingo in the US. This device, designed for adults who do not suffer from diabetes, allows users to monitor their glucose levels and provides valuable insights into the impact of diet and exercise on their overall health. Lingo, which can be worn for up to 14 days, underpins Abbott's attempts to penetrate the emerging consumer market targeted on prediabetes management and health, all this without the necessity of a prescription.
