.@debjani_ghosh_ Debjani Ghosh, President of NASSCOM has a very insightful article in Business Line on what the #IoT-#IIoT cluster needs for it to thrive. Most importantly, it needs #VisionaryLeadership & a very strong and deep pool of talent, especially in Artificial Intelligence #AI . But in order to really thrive, there are also important challenges in developing widely-agreed standards so that Interoperability between different IoT devices and products is facilitated. Similarly, because the Cybersecurity dimension is now central, on the one hand, while connectivity is also critical for it to function, widely agreed standards are equally essential. On the hardware end, since bandwidth is not yet available to the same extent everywhere, it may be necessary also to specially enable computing at the Edge with #LowLatency and #HighBandwidth hardware.
