Writing for Forbes has been a “bucket list” objective of mine for a long time. I recently got my big break – an opportunity to collaborate with Forbes Insights to write a comprehensive series of articles on the state of the Internet of Things (IoT). We covered everything from why companies are so interested in IoT, to the data and insight they’re getting, and the security risks they face. We also addressed the people aspect, discussing the impact of digital transformation and the importance of collaboration, co-creation, and agility. Now, I’m sharing it all with you. Right here, right now.
I hope you enjoy reading these articles as much as I liked having the opportunity to be part of this amazing project. Thanks again to the team at Forbes Insights!
