Why AI Matters for IoT and Space-Tech

The convergence of IoT and AI is reshaping industries. According to McKinsey, organisations that combine IoT data streams with AI-driven analytics see significantly higher returns in efficiency, sustainability, and revenue. For space-tech ventures like Myriota, this means not only transmitting global data but also enabling intelligent interpretation at scale.
