Note, this article follows directly from a previous post (January 24) – about why logistics is the hardest industry of all for the IoT market to crack; both are taken from a new editorial report on the state of IoT in the supply chain...
The second best thing to making a full-circle pivot to zero emission is to reduce your current footprint – with miles that are not driven, flights that are not taken, and energy that is not consumed. Indeed, while we transition to a completely emission-neutral...
US firm Semtech has concluded its acquisition of Canada’s Sierra Wireless for $1.2 billion, nearly doubling its annual revenue. The deal, announced in August last year, brings together Semtech’s LoRa/LoRaWAN property, enabling non-cellular low-power wide-area (LPWA) IoT in unlicensed spectrum, with Sierra Wireless’ well-established...
Massive IoT – or massive machine-type communications (mMTC) – is all around us. We live in a vast connected ecosystem of data-gathering applications that draw on comparatively low levels of data at source but which, when aggregated by application vendor or enterprise user, is...
Japan-based plumbing manufacturer TOTO is using LoRaWAN to connect and manage restroom facilities in airports, stadiums, hotels, and office buildings in the US. It is working with Comcast-owned MachineQ to connect its portfolio of ECOPOWER flush valves in toilets and urinals, as well as...
Data is vital for monitoring the environment to improve the way increasingly scarce resources are used. The ability to monitor the systems that manage those resources anywhere on the globe is also vital, but it can be a challenge. Cellular 3G and 4G technologies...
Want to know how to scale private 5G across manufacturing plants and manufacturing applications? Well, European aviation and aerospace manufacturer Airbus knows how. Of course, if you have followed the Airbus story in these pages, or caught its feature presentations and panel discussions at...
Singapore-based UnaBiz, owner of the Sigfox technology, has completed a Series B funding extension worth $25 million, to take its total Series B investment, initially pegged at $25 million in late 2021, to over $50 million. The new funding comes from existing investors, led...
There was a good panel session, yesterday (November 29; see cover image, available on-demand), on IoT tracking in the supply chain, which brought insightful content and commentary from leading IoT outfits DeltaTrak, Telit, and Unabiz, plus from analyst house ABI Research. But even with...
Barcelona-based antenna company Ignion has launched a digital-twin prototyping tool for IoT devices with up to five radios. The latest version of its Antenna Intelligence Cloud (AIC) product, which ostensibly removes the need to start with a physical prototype, supports design simulations of IoT...
US LoRaWAN specialist Senet has been recruited by US engineering firm LimnoTech to deploy a public LoRaWAN network across the Great Lakes region of the US, providing connectivity across area wetlands, parks, coastlines, rural and urban areas, and open waters. The work is part...

A helpful snapshot of the developing IoT market, from a presentation at The Things Conference in Amsterdam a couple of weeks back; Paul Pinault, vice president of platform and market strategy at France-based Braincube, took to the stage to draw interesting, possibly important, distinction...
This is a rehash of a social media exchange last week, somewhere in a far-off echo chamber on LinkedIn, following a post by Enterprise IoT Insights about unsuccessful IoT deployments – which riffed on a slide from Canada-based LoRaWAN solution provider TEKTELIC, shared during...
Munich Airport is looking to connect, expand, and automate its existing energy monitoring system, currently taking meter readings for water and electricity consumption – across the terminal buildings, baggage areas, and hangars – over local-area wired and wireless networks, to its developing low-power wide-area...
The Things People – those in charge of the The Things Network (TTN) and The Things Industries (TTI) – took the magnanimous (though correct, given its place in the back-end IoT stack) step at its annual LoRaWAN developer event in Amsterdam, The Things Conference,...
Two thirds (67 percent) of enterprises want to see a return on their IoT investments (ROI) within 12 months of starting-out, and yet almost half (49 percent) reckon the biggest roadblock to ROI is long deployment times. Clearly something is up, says a survey...
Senet has expanded its public LoRaWAN network across all five boroughs of New York City through a combination of Senet-owned infrastructure, roaming deals with partner networks, and formal integration with Helium network, the company has said. The US LoRaWAN operator is on a charm...
Heliot Europe, the biggest Sigfox operator in Europe, has joined the MIOTY Alliance, the group promoting MIOTY as an alternative to low-power IoT technologies like Sigfox, as well as LoRaWAN and NB-IoT. The move, which might once have been considered by the Sigfox crowd...
Next week – in case you’ve been trapped under a heavy object, away from the business pages on social media – is The Things Conference, the annual LoRaWAN shindig in Amsterdam, hosted by the TTN/TTI Things collective. The show (September 22-23) has built a...
As US IoT chipmaker Silicon Labs opens the (virtual) doors to its third Works With event (September 12-14), and readies a rush of new product releases (coverage incoming), Enterprise IoT Insights caught up with Ross Sabolcik, the firm’s general manager for industrial and commercial,...
