Speaking at the India Electronics and Semiconductor Association (IESA)’s Vision Summit 2019, S Shri Gopalakrishnan, joint secretary in the national government’s Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), said: “We are at the cusp of interesting times. 5G and Internet of Things (IoT) will result in disruptive growth. However the fact that billions of devices will be connected will bring its share of challenges. What makes this different from the previous disruptions is that almost all devices will be connected.”
