Our take

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a revolution in the way we interact with our world, with previously stand-alone, offline products becoming intelligent. This means they are able to communicate, receive updates, and relay vital data back to their users and producers - but IoT technology is frequently complex to deploy, with issues in construction and connectivity delaying numerous projects.

Blues exists to overcome this complexity, producing a full-stack solution that works to get products connected to the cloud almost immediately. Its central offering is the Notecard, a system-on-module that comes pre-loaded with cellular connectivity that functions in over 130 countries and is especially useful in locations where Bluetooth and wireless capabilities are lacking.

The company is not without long-established competitors, but is nonetheless working to cement itself as a market leader in the space. It has hundreds of customers spanning sectors such as healthcare, agriculture and manufacturing, and has raised considerable funding towards expanding operations. No doubt, as the demand for IoT capabilities continues to grow, Blues will have the opportunity to accelerate its growth into the future.
