Market dynamics

4 factors across 3 forces
01

Surge in the Adoption of AI Chatbots in the IT & Telecom Sector

The IT and telecommunications industries are increasingly adopting AI chatbots to supplement human assistance for customer inquiries. These chatbots, equipped with advanced technologies, efficiently address basic queries, saving time and improving customer service effectiveness. By utilizing AI chatbots, IT and telecom companies can gather valuable real-time information about customer interactions and preferences, enabling them to gain insights into customer behavior, identify trends, and conduct business analyses. This data-driven approach allows companies to refine their strategies, tailor their services, and deliver more personalized experiences to their customers.

As the adoption of AI chatbots rises, many IT and telecommunications companies are increasingly launching chatbots that facilitate human-like interactions and manage more complex customer requests. For example, in March 2025, VOXI, a sub-brand of Vodafone Group PLC (U.K.), introduced a large language model generative AI chatbot aimed at enhancing customer experience. This new chatbot improves user engagement by interacting in a more human-like manner and effectively managing sophisticated inquiries. Such advancements are expected to drive demand for AI chatbots in the IT and telecommunications industry during the forecast period.

02

Growing Demand for 24/7 Customer Support

The demand for 24/7 customer support is on the rise, driving rapid adoption of AI chatbots for their ability to provide round-the-clock assistance. Various industries, including BFSI, IT and telecommunications, retail and e-commerce, healthcare and life sciences, and travel and hospitality, are increasingly implementing AI chatbots to enhance their customer support services.

Banks are increasingly utilizing AI chatbots for straightforward query resolution. These chatbots assist customers with tasks such as checking account balances, transferring funds, and making payments. Leveraging natural language processing technology, these chatbots understand customer inquiries and deliver instant responses.

In the healthcare sector, AI chatbots offer customer support by providing immediate responses and guidance, particularly outside of regular working hours. Patients can obtain quick answers to urgent questions, advice on minor health issues, and direction on when to seek emergency care, thereby reducing unnecessary hospital visits and alleviating pressure on healthcare systems.

Additionally, in the travel and hospitality industry, AI chatbots facilitate booking-related tasks and offer multilingual support to handle diverse customer inquiries, ultimately enhancing customer satisfaction.

Various key players are launching AI chatbots to deliver seamless and personalized customer support. For example, in June 2025, Jade E-Services Singapore Pte. Ltd. (ZALORA), Asia’s leading fashion and lifestyle e-commerce platform, introduced an AI-powered customer service chatbot aimed at providing tailored support to customers across Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. This AI chatbot is designed to learn from and understand the intent behind customer inquiries, delivering relevant and accurate responses in an intuitive, visually engaging format. Such advancements are expected to significantly drive market growth during the forecast period.
