The document discusses the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) and its impact on businesses. It notes that the IoT allows for interconnected devices, machines, and sensors to generate and share real-time data across networks. This brings opportunities to improve productivity, access real-time enterprise data, create new business models and offer environmentally-friendly solutions. However, businesses must integrate IoT into their operations or risk being disrupted. The document concludes that the IoT is already enabling hyper-connected enterprises and businesses need to respond proactively if they want to become disruptors rather than be disrupted.
