According to statistics provided by Optical Society of America, the global optoelectronics market growth rate will remain at 6% in 2015, and is expected to reach $500 billion, of which $100 billion will come from the optoelectronic products. In 2015 the laser materials processing market showed sign of weakness, with only a slight increase of over $500 million compared with 2014, reaching $9.7 billion. With lasers entrance into the dental market, the medical laser sales continued to grow. Revenue from the consumer electronics markets in developing countries will exceed that of their developed counterparts. 75% of the laser marking systems will come from China, and the Chinese and foreign outstanding laser manufacturers will continue to focus on high power materials processing and the high-end laser device research markets.

Laser has become a competitive manufacturing tool, and the sole solution in many manufacturing environments. Over the next few years, advanced lasers will continue to flourish in the new carbon fiber reinforced composite materials manufacturing in the automotive field, as well as in some micromachining. As product manufacturing is increasingly associated with laser, companies such as Apple and Google also seek laser talents. The outstanding enterprises have realized that the company's laser talent is essential to accelerate the implementation of the laser manufacturing technology, and to effectively improve efficiency.
