With an ecosystem of more than 1,000 channel partners and revenue from its IoT and telematics solutions total ling $495 million year-to-date, Verizon is generating one of the largest amounts of revenue from the Internet of Things of any company in the U.S.

“Continued innovation in smart cities, connected cars and wear ables demonstrates that IoT is the future for how we will live and work,” said Mike Lanman, Senior Vice-President Enterprise Products, Verizon. “Despite the exciting potential, IoT is still too complex, too fragmented, too expensive to connect and too hard to scale. Success in that future relies on a leader that can cut through the complexity and change the IoT model. That’s where Verizon comes in. With our experience in networks, devices, platforms and applications, we are taking a holistic approach to simplifying adoption to expand the IoT market from millions to billions of connections.”

With more than 1,000 acres of vineyards, the pilot uses sensor data and analytic that can be used effectively to conserve and add precision to resources like water and energy, prevent disease and lower operating costs, resulting in increased and consistently predictable crop yields.

Teaming up with Rareness, one of the largest suppliers of micro controllers in the world, to enable manufacturers of connected machines in IoT and industrial segments to embed Verizon IoT’s technology early in the design process and scale quickly.
