Internet of Things is poised to become one of the most disruptive technologies of the 21st century. According to a report by NASSCOM in five years, the global opportunity is likely to touch 300 billion USD and in comparison, India too would boast of a 15 billion USD market in IoT.

The market is still at a nascent stage with sales mostly limited to wearable devices in India. According to Jayesh Ghatge, Market Partner – ThoughtWorks, “Driven by sensor economy Internet of things is going to transform itself into Internet of people, services and data.”

We look at top five IoT startups firing on all cylinders and analyze what sets them apart from others in the emerging IoT market eco-system.
