This discussion is missing something, of course; IoT is not supposed to be written about as an environmental risk. The idea that billions of disposable trackers might litter the planet is an alarmist angle, arguably, on a tech-for-good story. Because, in most cases, the mission to attach sensors across all of public and private society is geared to drive efficiencies, and in many cases those efficiencies are directly or indirectly linked to energy-burning actions.

At Transforma Insights we have recently invested a lot of effort developing a comprehensive set of Artificial Intelligence (AI) forecasts. The approach that we took was bottom-up, seeking to identify where, and why, AI is deployed. In this article we discuss some of the high level results, in particular examining the symbiotic relationship that exists between AI and the Internet of Things (IoT).

In this episode of the IoT For All Podcast, Transforma Insights’ Founding Partner Matt Hatton joins Ryan to discuss the current IoT landscape, trends, and high-level predictions for the industry in 2022.

Devices connected to cellular networks worldwide gain improved connectivity and security without deploying agents or additional hardware.

France-based IoT service provider Sigfox has gone into receivership, blaming reduced demand and a shortage of key components caused by the pandemic.

How massive does ‘massive IoT’ get? And how big is the risk the planet will be littered with millions (billions?) of dirt-cheap tags and sensors? We should, probably, ask an analyst; and amid the bombast and contradiction that characterizes IoT forecasting, Transforma Insights appears to have a forensic line on the matter.

Communications service providers (CSPs) need to pivot to being hyperscale IoT connectivity providers if they want to thrive in the Internet of Things. That is the conclusion of Transforma Insights’ recent ‘Communications Service Provider IoT Peer Benchmarking 2021’ report.

Integrated SIMs (iSIMs) took another step closer to commercialisation this week, and they promise to bring with them significant benefits for consumer tech and cellular IoT.

Telefónica ranks among the three global leading providers in both “Hyperscale IoT Connectivity” and “Vertical” capabilities, according to the Communications Service Provider IoT Peer Benchmarking Report 2021.Transforma Insights assesses the connectivity capabilities of the world’s top twelve IoT communications service providers and how prepared they are to advance their business and scale to become massive IoT connectivity providers capable of supporting hundreds of millions of devices in a quick, flexible and cost-effective way.
