Education PC Market Research Report - Global Forecast till 2030

Impact of COVID-19 on the Education PCs Market

The COVID-19 virus is rapidly spreading across the world. The education sector has temporarily closed all institutions worldwide. The pandemic has affected the education of students ranging from school-going children to postgraduates. Therefore, the education sector has come up with e-learning programs that have triggered an unseasonably strong demand for devices like education PCs. Digital learning has no physical boundaries, it is also cost-effective, and students get access to education in the comfort of their homes. There has been a rise in the demand for education PCs because of the surge in the adoption of remote working policies, learning requirements, and the latest trends in online education.

However, students in rural areas do not have the required infrastructure, nor are they financially strong to avail of the resources required for digital education, which is expected to hamper the growth of the global education PCs market. Besides, various manufacturing participants are shifting their production facilities outside China. The lockdowns initiated by the governments of most countries have adversely affected manufacturing activities and the demand for semiconductor devices. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the semiconductor industry owing to the partial shutdown of the manufacturing sector, leading to a significant decline in production. The outbreak of COVID-19 has also disrupted the supply chains. Furthermore, there is an acute shortage of shipping capacity. The manufacturing sector is facing fluctuations in the supply of raw materials, which has increased lead time. Also, the electronics industry has been significantly impacted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as China is a significant supplier of raw materials used in the manufacture of electronic devices as well as for finished products. Most of the electronics factories were shut down due to the coronavirus pandemic, which has led to a shortage of supplies.
