Emerson has been named the ‘Industrial IoT Company of the Year’ by IoT Breakthrough for the second year in a row. The honour recognises Emerson’s innovation and leadership in driving IIoT technologies and strategies for customers in manufacturing industries such as oil and gas, power, chemical, life sciences and others.
The IoT Breakthrough Awards, which received more than 3500 nominations in 2018, recognise innovators, leaders and visionaries from around the globe in a range of IoT categories, including industrial, smart city technology, connected home and others. With IIoT capabilities, industrial companies have more potential than ever to collect real-time data. However, turning that data into actionable information and game-changing operational performance can be a complex process. To help customers implement IIoT technologies seamlessly, Emerson pioneered its Plantweb digital ecosystem, a scalable portfolio of technologies, software and services that enables performance improvement in production, reliability, safety and energy management.
