emnify, the industry-leading, cloud IoT connectivity provider, is excited to announce the first dedicated, cloud-native, IoT connectivity in Brazil, in a direct partnership with Claro Brasil. The addition of Brazil to the emnify IoT SuperNetwork advances the company’s mission to provide a single, globally distributed, cloud-native IoT network to reduce the complexity of IoT connectivity while creating new opportunities for growth for IoT businesses everywhere.
This most recent expansion of the SuperNetwork marks a significant milestone in emnify’s commitment to unlocking challenging markets while maintaining consistent capabilities against a highly fragmented coverage and regulatory landscape. emnify’s success in Brazil demonstrates the agility of the company’s cloud-native approach to rapidly innovate to help IoT businesses take advantage of new opportunities and work together to achieve successful IoT business outcomes. As an AWS Advanced Technology Partner, emnify will be the first to enable a complete, native, AWS IoT cloud stack, including connectivity, in Brazil. Now, local customers can benefit from a native integration of SuperNetwork connectivity into the leading global IoT application stack of AWS.
Innovating to unlock IoT opportunity
According to Transforma Insights, cellular-based IoT connections in Brazil are forecast to grow from 29 million at the end of 2022 to 69 million at the end of 2027, a CAGR of 19.1%.
“Brazil is the most prominent example of a country where strict roaming regulations have proven to be a challenge for IoT businesses looking to capture the opportunity in the market,” said Matt Hatton, Founding Partner at Transforma Insights. “Enterprises looking for consistency in managing global IoT deployments require a solution that specifically addresses the demands of the Brazilian market, such as emnify’s IoT-specific network access allied with its own cloud-native mobile core network.”
"We are proud to be the first cloud-native IoT connectivity provider to add Brazil to the growing list of countries where we currently offer coverage, delivering on the promise of the SuperNetwork," said Frank Stoecker, CEO of emnify. "Wherever you deploy IoT devices, the SuperNetwork provides a consistent and complete set of superior capabilities including connectivity management, cross-network insights, device and data security and a complete set of APIs, creating new levels of scalability and reducing operational friction.”

Buildings IoT | May 31, 2022
Buildings IoT, based in the United States, has opened offices in the United Kingdom to service the unique demands of building stakeholders in Europe, with the goal of decarbonizing buildings and advancing Net-Zero projects. Buildings IoT will market its IoT Jetstream smart building platform in the UK and across Europe to building owners, managers, investors, contractors, and systems integrators.
Les Russell, Director of Business Development, is in charge of Buildings IoT's UK operation. Russell will be in charge of overseeing all primary partner connections, as well as providing assistance and raising the visibility of Buildings IOT across Europe.
"Smart building technologies have reached an inflection point of maturity and performance, with speed to impact and a tangible ROI. The UK market is ripe with opportunity, thanks to the country's concerns over carbon reduction, indoor air quality, and financial due diligence requirements. The UK's goal to reach Net-Zero by 2050 is also a major driver of demand for proven solutions, including those from companies like Buildings IOT, that hold decades of domain expertise in both building infrastructure and platform technologies. I'm thrilled to be part of a team that recognises the UK as a global leader in sustainability and environmental consciousness, setting a high benchmark in energy efficiency standards for buildings," explains Russell, who has spent the last five years in the smart buildings industry.
The Buildings IOT UK team will look for potential to improve occupant experience and realize overall operating efficiencies in a number of London-based commercial buildings, including office and manufacturing buildings. The organization will collaborate with important partners who have clients with specific ESG [environment, social, and governance] goals, as well as energy efficiency, sustainability, indoor air quality, security, and other operational factors.
"We're happy to have Les on our team. His strong commercial background and business acumen made him a perfect fit. In his last role, Les identified Buildings IOT as a company to assist with a high-profile customer and a bespoke request around data optimisation. His belief in the Buildings IOT solution and understanding of what the UK market needed made it seem natural to bring Les on board,"
Gina Elliott, Chief Services Officer of Buildings IoT.
Buildings IoT will expand its European presence by hiring engineers and customer success representatives in the United Kingdom. In addition, the company continues to use Agile development methods, enabling partners and customers to participate in the development of its smart building platform roadmap.

Milesight | May 30, 2022
Milesight, a global AIoT solution provider, stated earlier this year that it has upgraded its brand identity, signaling the start of a new AIoT journey.
State-of-the-art Technologies in the AIoT Industry
5G, LoRaWAN, and AIoT technologies are important driving forces in the IoE movement (Internet of Everything). These advanced technologies combine with one another as they evolve and mature, becoming popular and infiltrating many aspects of life. Milesigiht unveiled a new brand identity to promote its debut into the AIoT business. Furthermore, a new headquarters has been created and is fully operational, which is a smart building driven by MilesightAIoT technology.
Milesight Products of the Highest Quality
Milesight offers solutions with remarkable flexibility and reliability for the global market as a fast-growing AIoT solution supplier. The 5G AIoT Camera is a breakthrough in the realm of video surveillance and IoT, going beyond data collection and extracting actionable insights. It is a milestone of Milesight's initial success in merging 5G with AIoT. It can wirelessly broadcast and receive video data via a SIM card, as well as absorb various sensor data such as temperature and water level data.
IAQ Sensor, which gives plain data immediately exhibited on display and cloud platforms to enable people to see and improve indoor air quality, reinforce health, and preserve business continuity, is another successful example of combining IoT and LoRaWAN® technology. For example, 47,000 IAQ Sensors were put in Canadian schools during the COVID-19 pandemic, helping to improve ventilation and filtration while creating a healthier learning environment for students.
Milesight is on a new journey to AIoT, with a commitment to offering more and more advanced AIoT solutions such as smart cities, smart building, smart agriculture, and more, contributing to a more intelligent and connected world by perfectly combining cutting-edge technologies such as 5G, LoRaWAN, AI, and IoT.
Milesight is a firm believer in everything being connected. Milesight will continue to thrive in the AIoT era with more connected and integrated products and solutions to come, thanks to the new brand identity.
