中国の自動車産業は、新エネルギー車(NEV)の普及、規制強化、新車販売の伸び鈍化を背景に、知能化・コネクテッド化へと移行しています。先進運転支援システム(ADAS)、車両コネクティビティ、車載インテリジェンスを軸に、モノのインターネット(IoV)の展開が加速しており、政策的な後押し、5Gの普及、異業種連携がその成長を支えています。

中国オンライン人材紹介市場の市場構造
中国のオンライン採用市場は、採用活動のモバイル化やデータドリブン化を背景に急速に成長しています。大手プラットフォームは、規模の優位性やAIを活用したマッチング機能によってトラフィックを獲得し、市場を主導しています。一方で、多様化する労働ニーズを背景に、特定領域に特化したニッチ型プラットフォームにも成長余地が残されています。競争の軸は、テクノロジーやデータ活用力に加え、エコシステムにおけるパートナーシップへと移行しつつあります。

中国ヘアケア市場インサイト: ヘアカラー市場における日本ブランドのプレゼンス
