Vodafone Has 50 Million IoT Accounts

Vodafone says it is the first global IoT provider to amass 50 million internet of things connections, adding about one million new connections a month, with particularly strong performance in the automotive, healthcare and utilities sectors, Vodafone says.

In 2016, global IoT revenues earned by mobile operators was in the range of Eur 11 billion, according to Berg Insight. Average revenue per connection was Eur 1.40 on average, ranging from Eur 0.30 in some developing countries to Eur 3.00 in developed countries.

Some 56 percent of organizations have integrated IoT data into their existing core business systems such as ERP, cloud hosting platforms, analytics tools, and mobile applications.

About 55 percent of IoT adopters in the Americas surveyed by Circle Research have seen revenue growth by greater than 20 percent following IoT implementation.

Globally, IoT now accounts for 24 percent of the average IT budget,  equivalent to IT spending around cloud computing or data analytics, Vodafone ’s fourth annual Internet of Things (IoT) Barometer Report says.
