Our take

Founded in 2015 by ex-Amazon engineers, Soracom has grown into a major player in the IoT sector. With a customer base of 25,000 businesses including Sharp, Nectar, and Panasonic, and five million devices connected globally, the company’s platform covers nearly every conceivable use case for IoT connectivity across all industries.

As the IoT revolution gains steam a plethora of providers has entered this $200 billion market, including heavyweights Samsara, Siemens, and IBM. However, Soracom’s focus on accessibility and cost effectiveness gives it an edge in this market, with some of the industry’s lowest cellular connectivity rates and transparent pricing proving to be a powerful draw for its customers.

The demand for IoT connectivity is only growing, and Soracom is moving to capture a large share of this market by expanding its offerings globally. It is currently particularly focused on the European SMB market, where it has recently rolled out the Plan X3-EU IoT data plan. Focusing on this sector is likely to prove a shrewd move, as to date small business has lagged behind larger enterprises in adoption of this technology. Soracom has positioned itself well for growth as it continues to accelerate the deployment of IoT devices worldwide.
