Enter the 2019 IoT Integration Awards to Prove Your Commercial IoT Devices Have a Place in the AV Industry

IoT is a lot more pervasive in commercial technology than ever before, and therefore the market for commercial IoT devices has grown, too.

According to market researcher Gartner, 8.4 billion networked devices were in use last year; 31 percent more than last year. By 2020, estimates say it will already be 20.4 billion devices. The global market value of commercial IoT products is projected to reach $7.1 trillion by 2020.

IoT is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators and connectivity to enable these things to connect and exchange data.

This creates opportunities for more direct integration of the physical world into computer-based systems, resulting in efficiency improvements, economic benefits, and reduced human intervention.

The 2019 IoT Integration Awards

Commercial IntegratorCE Pro, and Security Sales & Integration are teaming up to give out the 2019 IoT Integration Awards entries (click here for more info).

The deadline to enter your commercial IoT devices is coming soon, with the regular deadline on Sept. 27 and the “Sorry, I need more time” deadline a week later.

“Internet of Things has already become important in commercial spaces as customers increasingly have an expectation of intuitive design,” said CI editor-in-chief Tom LeBlanc.

“Meanwhile, as customers get used to walking into a meeting room or hotel room and having the lights, shades, and multimedia react to their presence, it’s easy to see that it will become increasingly important.

“The products recognized in this space will help commercial integrators elevate their IoT offerings.”
