Marching towards an AI-enabled IoT future Networks Asia

The Internet of Things (IoT) has been a buzzword in recent years, given its role in shaping smart cities and consumer lifestyle across Asia Pacific. According to IDC, the region – seen as the frontline for IoT adoption – will account for 8.6 billion of 29.5 billion connected devices globally by 2020. Industries are increasingly realising how IoT can accelerate digital transformation in organisations, enhance data connectivity and exchange across the network, and provide new opportunities for virtual and physical systems to become more integrated. Across the region, companies have been applying contemporary data science techniques to deliver applications, products and services through smartphones. The combination of IoT, Artificial Intelligence (AI), machine learning and predictive analytics is currently creating big economic value for organisations across the region.
