My Figure shows region growth to 2019 (measured in current US dollars) – showing that the Americas and Asia Pacific will out-pace EMEA; the two successful regions have better investments in the global market, being home to the intellectual property and marketing innovation (US) and the economic advantages of mass production (China, Taiwan, Indonesia, India).
