  • IoT is taking flight.

    IoT is taking hold in every industry. In healthcare, it’s helping pharmaceutical companies track and trace medicines from production to patient, and address US Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) requirements. In agriculture, sensors in the ground are providing near-real-time data about the health of crops. Drones are already being tested by Energy and Utilities companies to monitor remote infrastructure and check for leaks, and being used by insurance companies for claims work. And, from coast to coast, US cities are deploying smart solutions to help manage traffic, maintain public safety and attract businesses and citizens alike.

    73% of executives are either researching or currently deploying IoT¹.

    Enterprises are reaping IoT benefits beyond compliance. They’re saving money, finding new efficiencies, improving customer service and driving business growth. And the barriers that once stood in the way—security, cost, interoperability—are eroding fast thanks to simplified end-to-end solutions and low-cost IoT technologies and connectivity. That’s driving new use cases that will see organizations move on from simpler applications to achieve even greater value from IoT.
