Wyld promises 100% global connectivity for IoT

Wyld said its new network will allow businesses and governments to connect their IoT devices anywhere in the world using Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites. The new service will enable IoT applications to be deployed across remote locations without the need for terrestrial connectivity, ensuring coverage for 85% of the Earth’s surface which has little or no current service.

CEO of Wyld Networks, Alastair Williamson, said: “We are delighted to announce the launch of Wyld’s satellite IoT network. This has been the culmination of over three years of continuous development activity. We look forward to delivering connectivity to meet the fast-growing demand.

“With applications and positive upsides for agriculture, the environment, supply chain, and the energy and utilities sectors, satellite connected IoT is on a significant upward trajectory. Low earth orbiting satellite constellations have been launched by Wyld Networks’ satellite partners with further satellite launches throughout 2023, enabling Wyld to satisfy more use cases with its customers. Data from anywhere is becoming a reality – from condition monitoring on remote pipelines to forestry management, soil monitoring for agriculture and container tracking across oceans.”
