Manufacturing is increasingly turning to next-generation networks to propel their businesses. After years of hype and steady uptake, Internet of Things (IoT) technology is all set to become a part of mainstream adoption. Right from industrial goods, retail, utilities, healthcare, agriculture, logistics to aviation, startups are offering IoT-enabled solutions ranging from connected cars, automated home, medical IoT, wearable technology to smart cities. Innovation in IoT is entering into a stabilization phase, as evident by the decline in new patent applications and venture capital (VC) deals activity but its adoption is increasing as corroborated by increase in hiring activity and corporate filing mentions with more companies mentioning their IOT related initiatives. GlobalData’s recent report, Future Internet of Things (IoT) Unicorns reveals that in Q2 2021, the IoT industry reported investment in excess of $6.4bn spanning 268 deals globally.


The rapid increase in IoT deployments over the last few years highlights the considerable progress global industry has made to overcome some of the world’s most challenging forces. During the period, Asia-Pacific accounted for nearly half of the overall VC deal volume, followed by North America (primarily the US) with 34%. When it comes to social media discussions, ‘IoT’ and its use cases in autonomous driving, cellular IoT, port operations and education are increasingly being mentioned by social media influencers. In the post-COVID-19 era, several organizations considered digitalization as their top priority, and saw IoT as one of the enablers. Fuelled by this digital transformation wave, the demand for new IoT applications will continue to increase in 2021 and beyond led by its applications in industries, connected cars, automated home, smart offices, medical devices, remote asset monitoring, drones, and location tracking services. Driven by this underlying demand, the IoT market is expected to reach $1 trilli

    The growing threat to the healthcare IoT sector

    IoT technology has changed the game for healthcare providers seeking to reduce costs and improve delivery of patient care. The advances are promising, and the medical IoT market is set to explode. At the same time, there is a growing threat to the healthcare sector to come under cyber-attacks, with the implementation of IoT. These are usually connected with medical devices like MRI and X-ray equipment, typically obtained from third-party sources. Since these medical devices aren’t built with security as a priority, they are vulnerable to cyber attacks that try to access their sensitive data. Healthcare institutions are targeted by cyber attackers for many reasons. One is that they safeguard and hold large amounts of sensitive data, including intellectual property such as vaccine research. They also contain identifiable information like medical and insurance details to be sold on the black market. In recent years, India has seen IoT adoption in education, governance, and financial services. The technology has also enabled doctors to see and interact with patients in remote telemedicine centers – with the case history and medical data automatically transmitted to the doctor for analysis.

    India has an acute shortage of doctors which impacts both the quality and reach of healthcare services in rural and urban centers. A report says, a digital platform powered by advanced digital technologies can enable continuous remote patient monitoring and reporting, allowing hospitals to extend care to more people, and reduce the burden on healthcare infrastructure. However, most of these IoT devices are hackable, and introduce cybersecurity risks that could negatively impact patient care and the bottom line. Hence, the need for operational technology (OT) security is changing as more and more of these environments are being connected to enterprise networks and exposed to threats on the internet. While this online connection makes data gathering and remote management of the

  • IoT - the next big thing for hackers

    Global IT spending is projected to climb by 5.1% to $4.6 trillion in 2023, according to Gartner, driven by a 11.3% increase in investments in cloud applications to $879.62 billion. This growth comes as an opportunity for the hackers to attack, these are evolving from those that shut down computers or stole data, to include those that could more directly wreak havoc on everyday life.

    IoT devices are a key entry point for many attacks, according to Microsoft’s Digital Defense Report 2022. “While the security of IT hardware and software has strengthened in recent years, the security of Internet of Things has not kept pace,” according to a report.

    The dark web's criminal minds see the Internet of Things as the next big hacking prize. Due to the rapid proliferation of Internet of Things devices. Cybersecurity experts say 2022 may have marked an inflection point due to the rapid proliferation of IoT devices.

    There are now an estimated 17 billion IoT devices in the world, from printers to garage door openers, each one packed with software (some of it open-source software) that can be easily hacked. Cars and medical devices are critical to everyday life, and vulnerable entry points for hackers.

    Last year, it was ransomware, as criminal hacking groups figured out how to shut down servers through what’s called directed denial of service attacks. But 2022, say experts, may have marked an inflection point due to the rapid proliferation of IoT devices.

    Finally, IoT devices can be the entry points for attacks on parts of countries’ critical infrastructure, like electrical grids or pipelines, or they can be the specific targets of criminals, as in the case of cars or medical devices that contain software.

  • One out of 13 unicorns globally is an Indian

    Indian startups raised $42 billion in 2021 as compared to $11.5 billion in 2020, as per a report by Orios Venture Partners. The report stated that India saw 46 unicorns coming up in 2021 alone, more than doubling their number to 90. These startups are generating large-scale employment. India - with 90 unicorns - is the third-largest unicorn hub behind the US (487) and China (301), and ahead of the UK (39). India has the third-largest startup ecosystem in the world with about 60,000 startups. These startups are not only developing innovative solutions and technologies but are generating large-scale employment. Today, one out of 13 unicorns globally were born in India. As per the report, Bengaluru was the city with the most unicorns. Fintech, e-commerce and SaaS (software as a service) have seen the maximum number of unicorns, while health-tech, ed-tech, D2C, Gaming and Crypto are also close behind. India has seen four decacorns (companies with a valuation of $10 billion and above) so far - Flipkart, Paytm, Byju's and Oyo Rooms, the report stated. The year 2021 was a landmark year for Indian startups going public.

    Today, one out of 13 unicorns globally is Indian. A total of 11 Indian startups (including 8 unicorns) raised about $7.16 billion through public offerings...One97 Communication (Paytm) raised India's largest-ever IPO with an issue size of Rs 18,300 crore (about $2.46 billion).

  • India to have over 250 unicorns by 2025

    India will have more than 250 Unicorns by 2025. The country has now been positioned as the 3rd largest unicorn hub in the world and surpassing even major countries such as the UK, Germany, France, and more. Moreover, it becomes the fastest growing startup ecosystem and creating a unicorn every five days. As per the report published in the Economic Times on January 15, 2022, India – with 90 unicorns – is the third-largest unicorn hub behind the US (487) and China (301) and ahead of the UK (39). Indian unicorns are also exploring the public listing avenues as a next step to realize the growth potential. This prediction comes from the proprietary data analysis of venture growth investor, Iron Pillar, in its Tech Unicorns Market Landscape Report IV. InMobi was India’s first unicorn in 2011. Entrepreneurs are building bigger enterprises at a faster rate -- 50 per cent of the 130 companies reached unicorn status in the first five years after their initial institutional fundraising. The public listing of 12 Unicorns is another indicator of the increasing maturity of the Indian tech ecosystem. While there is a strong belief that this pace may reduce a bit in the next 24 months, creating 250 companies with over $1 billion in value by 2025 is an extremely activable goal for Indian founders.

    India is on a global growth story. Thus, lots of global funds and investors are chasing assets. The internet companies in India do not even control 1% of the $3.4 trillion domestic equity market. In the US, the internet ecosystem dominates with 40% of the market capitalisation. The surge in fund inflows into startups to the digital transformation has disrupted everything in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. The pandemic-induced lockdowns have driven this rally, and that along with the huge market potential for these companies has caught the attention of global investors. Investors are looking for some sparks in new companies as they sit on a massive amount of capital. Unicorn
