The Internet of Things (IoT) is much more than the
result of seemingly fragmented and complex technologies
smashed together. In the following pages, you’ll read
about how forward-thinking business and public sector
leaders, as well as consumers and developers, are turning
to the Internet of Things to address some of society’s
most pressing social, economic and business challenges.
You’ll learn how the combination of five macro trends—
data monetization, consumer expectations, the regulatory
landscape, network connectivity/IoT platforms and
security—are helping to speed IoT adoption and deliver
measurable results across several industries and sectors.
We also offer recommendations and insights for how we
think large and small businesses, consumers and even
our planet can derive the greatest benefit from IoT over
the next two years.
