5.4 Billion IoT Connected Enterprise Devices By 2020

Enterprise IoT Projected to Grow From 1.2 Billion To 5.4 Billion connected devices by 2020.

In our six years of Accredent's involvement with IoT we have seen the forecast for the number of connected enterprise devices continue to be adjusted upward each year as more businesses look to the technology to save money, collect useful information, transform their business models and change their basis of competition.

In the latest report from US mobile network Verizon projects that today's 1.2 billion business use devices connected to the internet will grow 28 percent year-over-year for the next five years to 5.4 billion by 2020. Verizon believes the verticals and segments of energy and utilities, public sector, digital signage, connected CCTV, fleet management, and connected vehicles to be the sources of much of this growth.

Understand.

It all starts with the business. Winning in IoT and Analytics begins with a deep understanding of industry dynamics, customer value, business models, transformational advantage. From the right business ideation comes successful commercial and operational opportunity.

Design.

Its not enough to have a concept. Value creation means bringing the idea to life in a way that is meaningful – creating a business model, compelling user experience and operational excellence, designing it, prototyping it and getting the organization and the customers ready to realize it.

Realize.

Its not glamorous to move past proof-of-concept - its hard work to realize value from IoT and Analytics initiatives. It means architecting a solution and making sure it gets built and launched on time and budget – all the while connecting it with customers and channels, securing internal stakeholders, and building organizational capabilities to deliver it on an on-going basis.
