According to McKinsey & Company, the value of Internet of things technologies in the smart city environment is worth between $930 billion to $1.7 trillion per year in 2025.

With less than 1% of the data available being currently used, the opportunity to make quantum leaps is enormous. Those organizations that incorporate interoperability into their existing systems obtain 40% more value. Additionally, the industrial use case for data is 200% more valuable than in the consumer markets. Clearly cities must unlock the value of data beyond the hype.  +
