Showcasing at CES: advisory, device design and build, cloud and digital, and lifecycle services
Avnet (NYSE: AVT),
a leading global technology distributor, today announced its
comprehensive set of end-to-end IoT services to uniquely enable the
seamless delivery of innovative solutions to market through each stage
of the IoT lifecycle. These latest IoT services will be showcased by
Avnet at CES 2018 in Las Vegas on Jan. 9-12, 2018, at Tech East,
Westgate, booth 2609.
“Because IoT projects are so different from conventional IT solutions,
professional engineers, businesses and startups have struggled to
incorporate IoT technology into their business models and ultimately
into their products,” said Lou Lutostanski, Avnet’s vice president,
Internet of Things. “Avnet has developed a full suite of IoT services to
help customers overcome challenges related to design, connectivity,
delivery, data analytics, project complexity and other issues. To date,
IoT adoption has been slowed by the complexity of the IoT ecosystem,
which Avnet has addressed and simplified through these IoT services and
our technology partnerships.”
Through these new and enhanced IoT capabilities, Avnet offers end-to-end
solutions that guide customers from idea through every stage of their
design to deliver connected IoT products into the hands of consumers
around the world, delivering on the promise to help businesses reach
further.
