Los Angeles, Calif., August 27, 2021--There is absolutely no doubt that the Internet of Things (IoT) is a rapidly growing business.  Whether we’re consciously aware of it or not, digital transformation is impacting all aspects of daily life.  Connected devices are becoming pervasive; from refrigerators that let you know when you’re going to run out of milk, to sensors monitoring the moisture content of soil; from self-driving cars, to tags tracking the movement of containers, across oceans and continents.  A recent study from Fortune Business Insights projected that the global IoT market would reach US$ 1,854.76 Billion by 2028, up from US$ 308.97 Billion in 2020, a CAGR of over 25%.  NSR is predicting that the total retail market for satellite IoT is also forecast to experience significant growth, reaching around US$ 1.8 billion by 2029, up from around US$ 700 million in 2020.
