The Connected Consumer: Top Trends In IoT

February 01, 2015

2015 will be a year of intense experimentation in new value propositions for advanced technologies and services. Multiple sectors within the connected home are facing new competition and an increased emphasis on differentiation strategies and expanded offerings. Each area presents its own unique challenges and value propositions.

Ultimately, the dominant leaders in these categories will be the companies that leverage consumer demand and expectations to provide a personalized and valuable user experience.

State of the Markets: 2015 and Beyond

Pay TV is experiencing a similar pattern in global growth — fast-paced adoption in emerging markets and heightened competition in developed markets.

From the article "The Connected Consumer: Top Trends In IoT" by Stuart Sikes.
