IoT for Good
The application of IoT already has already significantly affected people, society and workplaces—and we’re only in the early stages of adoption. By 2030, the value of the IoT is likely hit the trillions. While IoT innovation can enable great economic, environmental and positive social change, there are also risks that it can reinforce biases, bad practices and even exclusion. As technological disruption and innovation continue to change society and our environments in profound ways, how do we ensure those changes are for the better? And how do we collaborate to make sure that the value and benefits are distributed equitably? In other words, how do we do IoT for Good?
