London, UK & Melville, NY, USA. October 2, 2017 — InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDCC) today announced the launch of its Smart City-focused Chordant™ business. The Chordant platform is designed to tackle the key business and data challenges in today’s smart city deployments.

The growing momentum behind a horizontal, standards-based approach to further evolve the Internet of Things (IoT) will be on show at Mobile World Congress (MWC) Americas, with numerous oneM2M member companies speaking and exhibiting at the event.

Technology companies from around the world gathered to advance adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) through increased industry co-operation, as the global IoT standards initiative oneM2M held its second successful Industry Day on Wednesday, July 13 in Memphis, TN.

Nicola Yates OBE has begun her role as chief executive officer of the UK’s centre of excellence in urban innovation, Future Cities Catapult.

IoT Now Magazine (ISSN 2397-2807) explores the evolving opportunities and challenges facing CSPs across this sector. Our exclusive interviews pass on the key lessons learned by industry leaders in next gen Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and Internet of Things (IoT) services. In February/March issue:   TALKING HEADS: Stream Technologies’ Nigel Chadwick tells George Malim how the company’s IoT-X Platform

oneM2M, the global standards initiative for Machine-to-Machine (M2M) and the Internet of Things (IoT), reported that adoption of its standard is continuing to grow, with more than 20 companies taking part in its interoperability testing event in Kobe, Japan.

The Internet of Things (IoT) makes many promises; a more cohesive society, greater understanding of existing technologies and vows of a better, easier life. But as more and more ‘things’ become ‘smart’ are technology providers really ready to follow up on such grand gestures?

ZTE Corporation, an international provider of telecommunications, enterprise and consumer technology solutions for the Mobile Internet, announced that the company has joined Avanci.

InterDigital, Inc., a mobile technology research and development company, announced that it has joined Avanci, said to be the industry’s first marketplace for licensing cellular standards-essential technology for the Internet of Things (IoT).

Avanci claims to have launched the first marketplace for licensing patented wireless technology to the Internet of Things (IoT).

The Internet of Things (IoT) makes many promises: a more cohesive society, greater understanding of existing technologies and vows of a better, easier life.

The commercial potential of the Internet of Things (IoT) is impossible to accurately quantify. It has broad implications for any industry with merely the slightest reliance on technology.

Enterprise Internet of Things (IoT) solutions are one of the hot button topics of the technology space for 2016. To better understand the dynamics involved with the adoption and deployment of IoT solutions

A white paper for the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA) from Machina Research emphatically reveals the coming importance of enterprise IoT and the central role systems integrators are playing in the commercial development and deployment of IoT services.

Machina Research analysis shows that using non-standardised versus standards-based solutions for IoT will increase the cost of deployment, hinder mass scale and adoption, and stifle technology innovation for smart city initiatives worldwide.
