London, UK, March 24, 2014 – The International M2M Council has announced that its newest sustaining member is Synapse Wireless, a leader in developing proven, scalable M2M connectivity solutions based on their award-winning SNAP® wireless mesh technology.
The US-based company delivers comprehensive solutions that provide game-changing analytics to businesses looking to implement wireless capabilities, making it a good fit for the IMC, a new trade association serving the IoT industry.
“Synapse partners with leading businesses to turn the Internet of Everything into a meaningful advantage,” said Wade Patterson, CEO, Synapse Wireless. “Our products provide connectivity to any kind of asset – to drive functionality, data and insight that absolutely transforms business models. We hope to be a part of the thought leadership delivered by the IMC.”
The IMC has quickly gained over 1,000 individual associates, or Adopter Members, on five continents – mostly in the vertical-market sectors of logistics, healthcare, and energy – making it the world’s largest trade group dedicated to the IoT sector. Many IMC Adopter Members come from Fortune 500 companies, including 3M Healthcare, ABB, BMW, Coca-Cola, DHL, Hyundai, Philips, Saudi Aramco, Siemens Healthcare, Tata Group, UPS, the US Department of Defense, and Walmart.
