Machina Research’s predictions for the Internet of Things in 2016

Every January Machina Research, the world’s leading advisors on the Internet of Things, publishes its predictions for IoT in the coming year. This year promises to be an eventful one.

The list below provides our predictions for what will happen in the year. It was derived from a host of suggestions from all of Machina Research’s market leading analyst team. We take the view that there is little point in doing these kinds of predictions if you’re not going to be outspoken and take a few risks. Doubtless many of the following list won’t come about as they are specifically termed, but they illustrate wider trends about which we are much more confident.
