International design in search of agility: anticipating to withstand

An industry that shows resilience and drives innovation
Over the past six months (October 2024 to March 2025), 65% of respondents reported stable revenue, while 27% saw growth. The Asia-Pacific region is driving the market upward (with 81% reporting stability or growth), followed by the Americas (69%). In Europe, resilience is more mixed (63%), largely due to political uncertainty and cautious investor sentiment.On the brand side, although rising costs, low-cost competition, and pressure on raw materials remain major concerns, 89% are actively preparing to launch new products by the end of September, a telling figure that reflects a sector in motion.
