GEC NEWS WIREZebra Technologies said that global leaders from healthcare, retail, transportation and logistics (T&L) and manufacturing validate the “Intelligent Enterprise” as the defining trend of the decade for industries globally.
Less than six months after introducing its vision for Enterprise Asset Intelligence (EAI), Zebra, in partnership with the Technology and Entrepreneurship Center at Harvard (TECH) assembled 40 leading executives, industry experts and policymakers for the 2016 Innovation Symposium: The Intelligent Enterprise. Executives from organizations such as Google, GE Healthcare and IBM defined the “Intelligent Enterprise” and explored best practices and opportunities for organizations of varying sizes and industries related to the Internet of Things (IoT).
Tim Kottak, CTO, GE Healthcare said, “We believe IoT holds endless opportunities in healthcare, from predictive patient care to the way pharmaceuticals are made – and we’ve only just begun.”
“Organizations across industries are already using automated data capture and processing today to gain an advantage. This leaves organizations a choice: become an industry leader and embrace the future today by harnessing the full potential of IoT – or fall behind,” said Kevin Ashton, Co-founder, Auto ID Center, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
Anders Gustafsson, CEO, Zebra Technologies said, “To make the Intelligent Enterprise a reality, companies from across industries must band together to come up with and agree upon standard practices and guidelines so all enterprises can connect and be more intelligent.”
