Organizations shouldn’t rush into IoT without a proper understanding of its benefits, business implications and the need for digital transformation. The simplest way to start is to get a Subject Matter Expert in IoT to advise how to start. It’s a long journey and every journey starts with a simple step.
“That’s a lot of churning and creative destruction, and it’s probably safe to say that almost all of today’s Fortune 500 companies will be replaced by new companies in new industries over the next 59 years” [Source: Mark J. Perry]
If today’s businesses don’t transform, they will face the same fate as the Fortune 500 companies.

The 10 Malaysian Universities Partners With FAVORIOT
Any digital transformation starts with the people. Technology adoption will face a stumbling block if we don’t have a generation of leaders, makers, thinkers, and doers. The same goes with IoT adoption – we need the right people, the right mindset and right competencies. FAVORIOT in the quest to develop a Generation-IoT, recently partners with ten (10) Malaysian Universities to provide better hands-on skills and tools to the University students (and lecturers) in developing their IoT solutions using FAVORIOT middleware.
The list of the Universities who joined the program are listed below:
It is expected about 300 graduates every year will be utilizing FAVORIOT platform for their Lab experiments, Final Year or Research projects. The program will allow more than 1500 devices to be connected to the platform.
