| | AUG - SEPT 2020 6EDITOR'S DESKWith the ubiquity of technology pushing emerging trends almost every day, it is easy to find oneself falling behind competitors after missing a vital opportunity to introduce "the next big thing." This is the current situation in the business landscape. Today, there are numerous IoT startups competing for a limited pool of investor cash, and the rivalry between these companies is fierce. However, what is common between these companies is that they use the latest trends to their advantage.In manufacturing, there is a new player that is embedding real-time analytics and machine-learning support into industrial IoT applications. The idea came from the realization that there is often unreliable Internet connection (or no connection at all) in factories and distribution sites, making a difference when taking advantage of IoT solutions. Another startup is set to revolutionize factories through the use of edge computing, sensors, big data, and enterprise-ready integrations. Its IIoT software platform easily integrates connected devices within enterprise IT, linking all assets and helping manufacturers make informed, data-driven decisions in the long run. The healthcare industry has probably the most exceptional use cases of IoT since they are all about keeping patients safe and sound while making it easier for physicians to perform their daily tasks. Remote health monitoring is a great example, but the list of robust IoT healthcare solutions doesn't end there. A healthcare startup has created a powerful IoT sensor to help people who use temperature-sensitive meds (such as insulin, biologics, or hormones) to keep drugs safe. Powerful IoT sensors act as wireless thermometers and detect any changes in the temperature. Besides, smart IoT sensors also show immense promise in monitoring the parameters of different vehicles and, thus, alert their owners whenever any issue arises. It also makes it possible to optimize other factors, such as fuel consumption, which doesn't only help reduce costs but also eliminate the need for manual reporting.In this edition of StartupCity, we bring you the story of some of the most prominent IoT startups that are combining and leveraging innovative technologies to deliver the best outcomes for their clients.
