KORE, a global IoT pioneer, signaled this expansion by today introducing the company’s new corporate brand identity and website. The rebranding reflects the evolution of the company and its vision for the future.

Businesses in every industry struggle with the complexities of planning, deploying, and managing IoT solutions. These challenges often result in delayed time-to-market, missed revenue opportunities, technology incompatibility, competitive disadvantages, and issues surrounding customer loyalty. KORE’s unique understanding of IoT pain points – from strategy development through technical challenges to logistical considerations surrounding endpoint devices – enable the company to deliver customer-specific solutions that reduce friction and accelerate the production of measurable results. KORE’s strong partnerships across the IoT ecosystem ensure that customers benefit from the best possible technology and services to meet their unique needs.

In addition, the company is pivoting toward vertical-specific solutions, delivering solution bundles at the industry use case level, to deliver exceptional value to customers in verticals such as fleet, healthcare, logistics, industrial, and more. These solutions directly address the challenges, business drivers, and revenue opportunities in each specific industry.

“The IoT market continues to rapidly evolve, with business and IT leaders facing complex challenges at an unprecedented pace. KORE’s responsive, customer-focused approach to this environment and its progression into a complete IoT solutions provider positions them to uniquely solve IoT enablement challenges and accelerate the rollout of IoT-driven enterprise applications,” said Dan Shey, Vice President at ABI Research.
