Pangea sees IoT data usage increase by 500% over 2020

We’re excited to report that over the course of 2020, our partners’ total IoT data usage shot up by over 500%!

Last year, the number of IoT use cases skyrocketed as the world quickly adapted to COVID-19; since then, 82% of the businesses who’ve adopted IoT have seen a rise in both revenue and market share.

And the demand for IoT data reflects this. It led to our year-on-year growth ramping up to 95%; more than double the previous year’s!

We were also able to kick off the new year by signing our 300th Channel partner. A total of 75 new partners came on board in 2020 to meet the rapidly growing demands of their customers with IoT and intelligent connectivity.

As a result, we had the opportunity to work on incredible IoT projects such as:

Connecting a pop-up hospital with Instanet at the start of the pandemic.

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, the NHS set up pop-up hospitals to protect the nation; but with patients due to arrive in two days, they needed connectivity immediately.

Our MD Dan Cunliffe is grateful to be working alongside some of the best teams in the Channel.

‘IoT helped keep the world turning through 2020, and it continues to shape the future ahead of us,’ he said. ‘It’s a privilege to be a part of that change, and to play a role in our partners’ own IoT journeys.

‘If you haven’t taken the first step into IoT yet, my advice is to find an IoT partner and do it now. Every industry is brimming with IoT opportunities right now, especially those like transportation, healthcare, education, and construction. Because the benefits that IoT offers—connectivity, efficiency, safety, sustainability—have never been more important.’
