Juniper Research forecasts that the total number of Industrial IoT sensors in use will increase from 17.7 billion in 2020 to 36.8 billion in 2025; representing an overall growth rate of 107%.

• Juniper Research suggests that smart manufacturing will remain a key growth sector of the Industrial IoT market over the next five years; accounting for 22 billion connections by 2025. 5G and LPWA (Low Power Wide Area) networks will play pivotal roles in creating attractive service offerings to the manufacturing industry, and enabling the concept of the ‘smart factory’ to be realised, in which real-time data transmission and high connection densities enable highly-autonomous operations for manufacturers.
• 5G services will be crucial in maximising the value of a smart factory to service users, by leveraging the technology to enable superior levels of autonomy amongst operations. Private 5G networks will prove most valuable when used for the transmission of large amounts of data in environments with a high density of connections and when significant levels of data are generated. This, in turn, will enable large-scale manufacturers to reduce operational spend through efficiency gains.
• Juniper Research forecasts that 80% of global Industrial IoT market value will be attributable to software spend by 2025; reaching $216 billion. Software tools leveraging machine learning for enhanced data analysis and the identification of network vulnerabilities are now essential to connected manufacturing operations.
• Manufacturers must exercise caution when implementing IoT technology; resisting the temptation to introduce connectivity to all aspects of operations. Instead, manufacturers must focus on the collection of data on the most valuable areas to drive efficiency gains.
