IoT adoption demands coordinated three-sector funding, not market forces alone

Sundaram argues that IoT adoption in the U.S. cannot succeed through private investment or government action alone—it requires deliberate coordination of public, private, and government funding in sustained partnership. This thesis positions market-driven adoption as insufficient, demanding instead a structured, multi-stakeholder strategy with long-term government commitment as the enabling backbone.
