The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The computer hardware market is expected to grow to $909.8 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 6.6%. The computer hardware market is expected to be aided by rapid growth in investments in smart city projects in many countries globally. Smart city technologies use information and communication technologies to efficiently manage and operate urban services, including transportation systems, water supply, and law and order. These technologies are enabled through IoT technology. IoT is a convergence of computing devices, and mechanical and digital objects. This system facilitates the transfer of data over a network without human interaction and minimal human-to-computer interaction. Smart cities use computers and related hardware, thereby benefitting the companies operating in this market. APG Algemene Pensioen Groep N.V. in 2021, announced an additional €500 million ($585 million) to ‘’Smart City Infrastructure Fund’’, for the development of smart city projects across North America, Europe, Australia and other major urban areas in the world.

Major companies in the computer hardware market include Dell Technologies Inc., HP, Apple, Lenovo Group Limited, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., Quanta Computer, Pegatron Corp, Intel Corporation, Hon Hai Precision Industry, and Inventec Corp. Electrical and electronic waste (e-waste) is currently the largest growing waste stream and rising regulations regarding its recycle and disposal are likely to hinder the growth of the computer hardware market. E-waste is hazardous and expensive to treat in an environmentally sound manner, and there is a general lack of standardized legislation or enforcement regarding e-waste. Close to 50 million tons of e-waste is generated globally every year and this e-waste is generally discarded in the general waste stream. Within these regions, e-waste is recycled using rudimentary techniques. E-waste has adverse environmental and health implications, for example, e-waste represents only 2% of solid waste in landfill globally but it accounts for up to 70% of hazardous materials. Safety and health issues, labor issues and regulatory frameworks related to the management of e-waste can be a threat to this market going forward.
