Can private networks breathe new life into mobile IoT?
This report is available to those subscribed to the IoT & Enterprise module.
Activity in the private wireless networks space is increasingly busy, at least from a supply of solutions point of view, which suggests that the mobile ecosystem is anticipating high demand from enterprise adopters, whose digital transformation requires mobile connectivity and, subsequently, IoT. However, IoT isn’t necessarily front of mind for private wireless solution vendors (operators and other suppliers), as it’s not typically included in combined offerings, at least for now. This piece takes a deeper look into the potential synergy between IoT and private wireless, highlighting that IoT is in fact a key value enabler of private networks, which is why it will likely see uptake wherever private networks are adopted.

Made for IoT Summit 2025: key takeaways from the show
Earlier this month, Onomondo hosted the Made for IoT Summit 2025, bringing together a mix of IoT developers, device OEMs, module makers and adopters from across the IoT ecosystem, under the motto 'IoT connectivity should never be a bottleneck'. Key themes discussed included the latest GSMA eSIM SGP.32 and SGP.31 specifications, how the ecosystem is getting ready for commercial launches and the impact to connectivity service providers and device makers. Non-terrestrial networks IoT was a topic of focus as well, with the event’s participants taking note of progress being made and expressing high expectations for further advancements in the low Earth orbit space that will help drive greater adoption and lower costs. Finally, a new flagship private wireless project was unveiled in detail: Onomondo’s implementation with Maersk, Nokia and a suite of other partners that will bring private wireless to 450 ships at sea.
