The Top Five Companies Dominating the IoT Landscape

The Internet of Things (IoT) is rightly touted as the future of technology. Many of our devices are already operating under the core principles of the IoT – connectivity and interoperability – and these features are only going to become more prevalent. From smartphones that can control our light bulbs, to our home security systems that work seamlessly across entire households, the IoT is here to stay.

BCC Research has valued the current market for IoT solutions and services at $225.1 billion, and predicts it will reach a mammoth $480.6 billion by 2027. That entails a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of as much as 16.4%. Given the rising proliferation of IoT technology, we’re examining the top companies in the IoT game today. We’ve profiled each company, analyzing their product offerings, applications served, and the popularity of the product. R&D activity levels and recent developments were also major considerations in forming this list.

So, without further ado, here are the top five companies dominating the IoT landscape today.

      1. Amazon

Unsurprisingly, global tech giant Amazon tops the list. Given Amazon’s status, it checks out that its IoT offerings would be equal parts extensive and world-leading.
Their IoT solutions come under the subsidiary Amazon Web Services, covering the entire scope of automotive, financial, healthcare, public services, and much more. Services include the famous Alexa and other IoT offerings for the home, consulting services for various industries, as well as software that enhances connectivity and control.
