Telenor Group – once again named a Leader by Gartner in the 2021 Magic Quadrant for Managed IoT Connectivity Services, Worldwide

Telenor Group is recognised as a Leader by Gartner, after evaluating 18 managed IoT connectivity service providers in the 2021 Magic Quadrant.

Eighteen vendors in total are positioned in the Magic Quadrant which assesses organisations in terms of their “ability to execute” and “completeness of vision”. Telenor was placed in the Leaders quadrant for its “completeness of vision” and “ability to execute” amongst other criteria.

We believe our position in the “Leaders” quadrant recognises our technology expertise, market competitiveness, commitment to our customers and determination to innovate. In our opinion it also validates our strategic focus on digital transformation and using IoT to address key industry challenges.

Gartner describes companies in the Leaders quadrant as: “Leaders perform skilfully and often exceed expectations. Leaders have a clear vision of the market’s direction and develop competencies to maintain their leadership. Leaders engage customers and provide value across multiple geographies. They shape the market, rather than follow it, and they often set the benchmark for market growth.”

“They have established a robust and diverse ecosystem of technology alliances and service delivery partnerships spanning IT, OT and IoT to meet broad market requirements.”

Telenor is one of the world’s largest operator groups, providing IoT services both for local and multinational companies by its IoT specialists located in 18 countries in Africa, Americas, Asia-Pacific and Europe. Telenor was an early pioneer in the IoT area and today operates over 17 million IoT units in over 190 countries and has been assisting customers with innovative managed IoT connectivity solutions for more than two decades.
