Telia wins global award for innovative IoT connectivity services
Telia has won the World Communications Awards, WCA, in the category B2B Service of the Year. The jury states that Telia drives global network aggregation and helps to break down barriers for IoT adoption. This is the fourth global award that Telia receives for its IoT connectivity services.
“We continue to solve our customers’ challenges and support them in making the complex simple, and it shows,” says Rachit Saksena, Head of Product Architecture and 5G Leadership at Telia.
In recent years, the number of IoT devices connected to Telia’s cellular networks across the Nordic and Baltic countries has more than doubled, helping businesses to increase efficiency and reduce both costs and environmental footprint. But buying IoT connectivity involves increasingly complex decisions, and the costs of making the wrong ones are high.
Choosing the right technology to fit a specific use case means considering mobility demands, data volumes, battery life and finding an optimal solution based on the location of the actual devices.
Therefore, Telia’s IoT connectivity services offer security and reliability with standardized network technologies that are easy to implement, integrate and manage with a customized portal and APIs. By connecting everything from smart sensors on electricity grids to forestry and farming equipment and a myriad of other types of devices, companies in all industries are finding new and smarter ways of doing business.
Some examples of this include businesses in manufacturing, forestry and charging, sectors where connectivity is simply a physical challenge.
“We saw the challenges our customers were facing to connect their solutions or products globally and we set out to change the game and offer IoT connectivity that will simplify global IoT deployment for them. And we wanted to build IoT connectivity solutions that enable customers to get all their IoT connectivity from one single place, to connect and manage all their devices in a compliant way. Now, we and our customers see how our IoT connectivity brings their IoT business to a new level,” Rachit Saksena says.
