The tale of IoT growth breaks out into two categories: IoT growth in the consumer category and IoT growth for the enterprise.

For the consumer, IoT products are truly transforming how people live in the 21st century. On the enterprise side, the conversation is all about productivity—how can IoT continue to create new efficiencies? Both categories drive a tremendous amount of activity, with 2022 spending on IoT reaching over $1 trillion.

The growth brings many new challenges—data management, privacy issues, and lifecycle management, to name a few.

In this episode of Technology Tangents, we are joined by special guest Gerald Jackson. Gerald is a Manufacturing/Supply Chain Operations & Technology executive with passion for innovation and over 20 years of experience bringing together teams to envision and deliver transformational, large-scale solutions/products to solve complex manufacturing and supply chain problems.

We discuss the current state of IoT, how to address the new challenges associated with the rapid growth, and how leaders should rethink the way they run their businesses when computing power and data can be anywhere.
