Europe’s continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) market is primed for continuous steady growth over the next decade.
Driven by the increasing prevalence of diabetes, rising adoption of connected diabetes management technologies, and growing demand for real-time glucose monitoring, Europe’s CGM market is projected to grow approximately 4% annually through 2036, according to GlobalData, an intelligence and productivity platform.
The integration of CGM with automated insulin delivery (AID) systems is transforming diabetes care by enabling more personalized and data-driven treatment while reducing the burden of frequent glucose monitoring.
GlobalData’s report, “Insulin Pumps and Continuous Glucose Monitors Market Size by Segments, Share, Regulatory, Reimbursement and Forecast to 2036,” shows that Europe accounted for nearly 20% of the Global CGM market in 2025.
“Europe’s CGM market is gaining momentum as healthcare providers increasingly adopt CGM-enabled, data-driven diabetes management to support improved glycemic outcomes,” GlobalData Medical Devices Analyst Aakansha Pankaj said. “Growing interoperability between CGM sensors and automated insulin delivery systems is broadening treatment options, though access and patient choice continue to vary by country and reimbursement pathways.”
Within Europe’s evolving diabetes care landscape, MiniMed’s launch of the Abbott-made Instinct glucose sensor represents a step toward greater device compatibility. The commercial rollout expands sensor options for the MiniMed 780G system, reinforcing the industry’s push toward more connected diabetes ecosystems.
“While affordability and reimbursement challenges continue to be the key determinants of CGM adoption across Europe, the growing shift toward interoperable diabetes technologies is expected to expand the use of connected glucose monitoring solutions and support sustained market growth over the coming years,” Pankaj concluded.
