According to significant market researches, the global Artificial Intelligence market is expected to experience massive growth in the coming years, with revenues increasing from around US$9.5 billion in 2018 to an expected US$118.6 billion by 2025.

The key drivers of such progress are rising startups that are adding more value and revenue to the widespread AI market. From Silicon Valley to London to Shanghai to the Indian IT hub, the proliferation of most innovative market entrants has presented with some great offerings and services across their region and globally as well. Few years old AI startups like Dataminr, Face++, SenseTime, and iFlytek have already proved themselves and now is time for newly founded organizations who are aggressively prancing ahead, to give tough competition to other key players of the market, while securing the huge sum of capitals.
