"To directly address the fragmented nature of the IoT industry, our Qualcomm IoT Services Suite offering is helping to bridge the gap for IoT service providers and entities looking to efficiently and effectively deploy smart solutions. In just one year, the offering has grown beyond our expectations, and we are proud of the interest we have attained and the shift in mentality we have driven to meet the needs of smart solutions across multiple industries beyond just smart cities," said Sanjeet Pandit, senior director and global head of smart cities, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc."
A Differentiated Model
The Qualcomm IoT Services Suite benefits businesses and entities looking to adopt smart solutions. The unique IoTaaS model is designed to remove the need to invest in costly and fragmented efforts. Adopting IoTaaS enables streamlined, end-to-end solutions, taking the place of lengthy processes that previously took months or years and can shrink timelines to a matter of weeks. Ultimately this supports rollout with faster time to commercialization and provides increased accessibility to smart solutions and infrastructure for businesses and communities.
What started as intelligent solutions for Smart Cities has emerged as a powerful digital transformation offering, enabling adopters to create self-sustaining revenue models by monetizing their own smart solutions.The Qualcomm IoT Services Suite's model is proliferating the digitization of industries, helping to enrich lives through the accelerated transformation of infrastructure and services.
An Enhanced Platform
The Qualcomm IoT Services Suite has introduced enhanced platformfeatures to deliver additional capabilities including:
