With revenue in the UK IoT market projected by Statista to reach US$25.95bn in 2023 and grow to US$48.7bn by 2028, there are substantial growing pains for IoT to overcome as it transforms the operational efficiency, environmental impact and competitiveness of businesses. However, it’s not just revenue growth that is at stake. IoT is increasingly […]
Antony Savvas looks at how manufacturers are moving their product development and design to the edge, and need IoT and 5G service providers to help them. “New-generation access (NGA) will help offset the decline in revenue from fixed and mobile voice services,” says analyst house IDC. It also expects 5G to unlock new opportunities by […]
In this article Robin Duke-Woolley, CEO of Beecham Research, explores how IoT solutions have moved from being largely dissociated from overall business objectives to being increasingly seen as a way of achieving them. However, recent research indicates there is still much to do. More about this can be found in Beecham Research’s free report – […]
As governments around the world instigate and progress sustainable transport policies and initiatives, the need for more electric vehicle (EV) charge points grows. The IoT underpins this relatively new infrastructure by enabling the exchange of operational and other data. To secure and protect this data and charging assets, charge point operators (CPOs) must design their […]
The past few years have seen enterprises accelerate their digital transformation, but as plans progress, many encounter challenges. The early stages tend to rely on steps such as the rollout of collaboration technology which can often be easily achieved, but next steps require a focus on use cases that access and consume enterprise operational data.

One of the biggest obstacles for fulfilling the promise of smart-home technology has been lack of consumer confidence in device security. Smart-home devices are perceived to operate like the lawless Wild West. A smartphone manufacturer with billions in brand equity will tightly follow recognised security practices. However, a little-known Wi-Fi camera maker might cut corners […]
The way we generate, store and distribute energy is being transformed to bolster energy security and transition away from fossil fuels towards renewables. Cellular IoT will play an increasingly important role in this by connecting devices and solutions in support of these goals. However, cybersecurity will be of paramount importance in the design and implementation […]
We need labels. Personally, the presence of labels is absolutely crucial for my health. I need them to understand the nutritional content of the food I eat and determine how much insulin to take, says Mike Nelson, VP of digital trust, DigiCert. We might not notice it but product labeling is often crucial to our […]
