On the IoT Carrier ScoreCard, Steve Hilton notes: “This ScoreCard focuses on the impact that carriers will have in the IoT ecosystem: an ecosystem focused on driving IT-based technologies into the operational technology (OT) units of public and private sector organizations.”
Hilton adds, “2014 will go down in the history books as the beginning of IoT experimentation by carriers. Our ScoreCard focuses on that experimentation and innovation.”
