For much of the past decade, the Internet of Things (IoT) struggled to meet enterprise expectations. While cloud computing and artificial intelligence attracted the bulk of capital expenditure, IoT initiatives were often confined to stalled pilots, fragmented standards, and narrowly scoped use cases. As a result, IoT was widely viewed as a technology with promise but limited return.
That perception is beginning to shift. The massive investments companies have made in AI are hitting a data ceiling. To evolve from simple chatbots to truly autonomous operations, AI requires the constant, real-world telemetry that only IoT can provide. This “forced maturation” has pushed adoption rates to a historic high of 37%, up from 32% in 2024.
