Companies are pursuing digital transformation at an unprecedented rate, propelled often by the innovation enabled by edge computing. Aware of the limitations of legacy systems and cloud computing, businesses are looking to leverage edge devices to harness data, streamline operations, and run complex workloads in a flexible, fast and resilient way. The data reflects this story. Recent estimates forecast that there will be 27 billion connected IoT devices by 2025 (IoT Analytics 2022). Demand is being driven by strong appetite from particular sectors, such as automotive, telco, manufacturing and retail, where optimized supply chains and advanced automation have outsized impact.

Talkdesk, Inc., a global cloud contact center leader for customer-obsessed companies, and NetNordic Denmark, a system integrator in cloud and the only authorized Talkdesk partner in the Nordics, are collaborating to deliver a contact center solution for Nilfisk. The Danish pioneer in cleaning technology and premium cleaning products selected the Talkdesk solution – with implementation by NetNordic – because its unique artificial intelligence (AI)-powered workforce engagement features will allow Nilfisk to transform both the agent and customer experience (CX). "We aim to provide seamless experiences across every touch point for our customers" Danish engineer P.A. Fisker founded Nilfisk in 1906, inspired by a love of knowledge and his ambition to build a company driven by technology. In 1910, the company developed and patented the first electric vacuum cleaner in Europe, setting the foundations for a 100 year commitment to delivering innovative cleaning solutions. Today, Nilfisk continues to advance floorcare and cleaning technology across the globe.

… that is focused on accelerating digital transformation and applying analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) to drive faster decision-making …

"Thanks to AI, the airline saved 480,000 gallons of fuel in six months." When Greta Thunberg boarded a transatlantic zero-emissions yacht she garnered the attention of citizens of the world on the fact that aviation is a polluter of the environment that we continuously ignore. The giant industry is responsible for producing 915 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions along with other dangerous gases that cause environmental changes like cirrus clouds. These emissions constitute two percent of the world's greenhouse emissions. From the electrification of jets to biofuel many ideas have been suggested to make flying more eco friendly.

Businesses across all sectors are taking a keen interest in the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) to address its most pressing challenges. AI is already known for its ability to speed up processes, streamline operations, and of course to crunch vast quantities of data faster than a human ever could. But when it comes to systems that can think for themselves? This reality is closer than you might think. Cognitive AI assimilates data from multiple sources, in different formats, and is able to weigh up these data to form insights.

SodaStream, an Israeli manufacturer of fizzy drink devices, gained visibility in the U.S. and Europe as a healthy and environment friendly alternative to carbonated giants like Coca Cola. But soon after relocating from a controversial site in the occupied West Bank to a new facility in southern Israel, executives realised that the company is facing a new challenge: streamlining operations in order to stay competitive with low-cost manufacturer rivals from China while quenching a fast-growing thirst for its bubbly beverages. To rein in costs and make SodaStream's four manufacturing lines more efficient, executives decided to automate assembly lines with robots, computerise production, and connect all manufacturing processes under one control system. The multi-year project was aimed at boosting output to keep pace with 30 percent yearly sales surges, while utilising artificial intelligence, machine learning and cloud computing to get a better handle on optimising production. "We continued to grow rapidly and were packed with endless employees. The dining room was full. The production side was full. We knew that we wouldn't be able to allow ourselves to keep operating the same way… whether in terms of space, efficiency, or in terms of costs," said Kfir Suissa, chief operation officer at SodaStream, which was acquired by PepsiCo in 2018 for US$3.2 billion.

IoT devices are unlike the usual sets of computers and smartphones. They have been game-changers in the digital world because of the way they can streamline operations across industry verticals. And with the help of Artificial Intelligence, humans are trying to understand a wide set of data through models which over the years has successfully generated actionable insights and continues to do so. Internet of Things solutions is complementing the space around us by making it more efficient whereas Artificial Intelligence development is complementing our brain like never seen before. IoT devices just like any other device generate huge volumes of data.

If you've had great customer service at a store recently, chances are a machine had a role in the transaction. Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming online and in-store shopping by customizing recommendations, automating delivery, and increasing efficiency. Artificial intelligence uses algorithms to carry out actions based on historical data, events, and statistics. Tools can forecast customer demand and adjust inventory orders to keep up with sales. Programs assist customers and offer the level of service they demand.
