With the growth of Internet of Things (IoT) tech in the enterprise, Forrester released a report on Friday outlining five IoT predictions for 2020. These predictions aim to help CIOs and their organizations maneuver the evolving IoT ecosystem, in which connected products help businesses run more smoothly. IoT refers to the billions of internet-connected devices that collect and share data. Once these devices are equipped with connectivity, they are referred to as "smart," which is reflected in smartwatches that read text messages, smart thermostats controlled via a phone app, and smartphones that essentially make the world go round.
