Cambashi in conjunction with Credit Suisse has published a report “The industrial Internet of Things. Connected Applications and Digital Transformation Trends”. Cambashi’s research into the industrial IoT market sector supports the Credit Suisse theme of ‘hardware companies buying software companies’; many established ‘OT’ (Operations Technology) companies are moving into or acquiring software companies in order to stay in the game, defend against disrupters and increase growth. There is a long tail of smaller companies and the sector will coalesce, leading to mergers and acquisitions.
