Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Video Surveillance Camera Market Report 2025

The gulf cooperation council (GCC) video surveillance camera market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.75 billion in 2024 to $2.0 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.1%. The growth during the historic period can be credited to rapid urbanization, growing concerns about public safety, expanded infrastructure development, escalating crime rates, and heightened government surveillance efforts.

The gulf cooperation council (GCC) video surveillance camera market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.35 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.8%. The anticipated growth during the forecast period is driven by the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered cameras, heightened demand for smart city initiatives, a growing need for real-time monitoring, greater integration with Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and rising investments in critical infrastructure. Key trends expected include improvements in facial recognition technology, the shift from analog to Internet Protocol (IP) cameras, the development of cloud-based video storage, innovations in wireless surveillance solutions, and advancements in edge-based video processing.

The rising number of cybercrime incidents is anticipated to drive the growth of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) video surveillance camera market in the coming years. Cybercrimes involve illegal activities conducted through computers or the internet with the intent to steal data, money, or disrupt systems. The surge in cybercrimes is largely fueled by rapid digitalization, as the expansion of online activities creates more vulnerabilities for attackers to exploit. Video surveillance cameras in the GCC region play a crucial role in combating cybercrimes by strengthening physical security at critical infrastructure sites, data centers, and offices. These cameras help deter unauthorized access that could result in digital breaches and provide recorded evidence necessary for investigating cyber-related incidents. For example, in November 2023, the Australian Department of Defence reported that during the 2022-2023 financial year, the Australian Cyber Security Centre received over 94,000 cybercrime reports, a 23% increase compared to the previous year, 2021-22. Consequently, the rise in cybercrime cases is propelling the growth of the GCC video surveillance camera market.

Key players in the GCC video surveillance camera market are concentrating on creating advanced solutions, such as AI-powered radiometric thermal cameras, to boost security monitoring, enhance threat detection, and deliver real-time analytics for critical infrastructure and public safety. An AI-based radiometric thermal camera combines infrared radiation detection with artificial intelligence algorithms to accurately measure temperature differences, identify objects or individuals, and provide real-time analytics for security, safety, or industrial monitoring purposes. For instance, in January 2024, Hanwha Vision Co. Ltd., a South Korean video surveillance company, introduced a comprehensive range of AI-powered security solutions aimed at improving real-time threat detection, analytics, and automated monitoring in commercial and industrial settings. These solutions enhance safety by minimizing false alarms and enabling rapid, precise responses to incidents. They also increase operational efficiency by optimizing resource allocation and simplifying investigations through accurate data analytics. The goal is to shift surveillance from passive observation to proactive security and business intelligence, aiding organizations in protecting assets, ensuring safety, and facilitating smarter decision-making.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The rapid rise in U.S. tariffs and the subsequent trade frictions in spring 2025 are having a major impact on the electrical and electronics sector, with semiconductors, display panels, and rare-earth metals (essential for batteries and motors) subject to steep duties. Consumer electronics brands face profit erosion, as competitive markets limit their ability to pass costs to buyers. Industrial electronics manufacturers, meanwhile, grapple with delayed projects due to shortages of tariff-impacted components like printed circuit boards. Companies are responding by relocating assembly to tariff-exempt countries, increasing inventory buffers, and redesigning products to reduce dependency on restricted materials.
