Global government spending on Internet of Everything skyrockets

Tom Kerber, an analyst at Dallas-based Parks Associates, believes many governments struggle with getting funding for IoT initiatives and must prove how they can help lower costs or improve revenue.

“The approval process in the public sector can be a challenge,” Kerber says. “Many different verticals within the public sector such as water and electricity can benefit from a combined infrastructure but are used to working independently. The very bureaucratic process has to be adjusted to take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves.”
