Today at CeBIT 2015, Won-Pyo Hong, President and Chief Marketing Officer of Samsung Electronics, delivered a keynote at Centre Stage in Hall 8 of the Hannover Exhibition Grounds. In his speech, he addressed the Internet of Things (IoT) for enterprises and how Samsung is creating an innovative, open and collaborative IoT ecosystem.
“As more and more businesses adopt the Internet of Things, we have a great opportunity to enhance customer value with increased productivity and profit,” Hong said. “Significant advancements can be made in the business process through the application of IoT in inventory management, energy efficiency and more. However, we first have to overcome the challenges of platform compatibility, data analysis and security in order to accelerate IoT adoption.”
