HKT Empowers Enterprises with Multiple
IoT Technologies

HKT establishes and drives a complete IoT ecosystem helping enterprises to capture invaluable data and gain business insights

HKT has established a one-stop Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem with multiple connectivity technologies in Hong Kong. With a leading edge in both fixed and mobile arenas, HKT is superbly positioned to ride on multiple IoT technologies such as NB-IoT, LoRa, 3G, 4G, LTE-M and Wi-Fi to assist enterprises to transform their business and capture growth potential.

IoT, a concept that has sparked the global interest in recent years, refers to the interconnectivity between physical devices, data analytics and the management platforms. IoT has been playing an increasingly important role in many sectors, including property management, transportation and logistics, utilities, healthcare, retail, and infrastructure. IoT has made it easier for organizations, employees and strategic business assets to stay connected across multiple locations. Most importantly, IoT helps enterprises to collect real-time data and capitalize on the meaningful insights, so they can identify new possibilities for businesses and also enhance customer experience by engaging customers with more personalized services.

HKT's creation of an IoT ecosystem has only been made possible through collaboration with an extensive group of partners and industry experts, who have played critical roles in developing different intuitive technologies for different applications. The complete IoT ecosystem will capture data with sensors, transmit such data through secured fixed and mobile connectivity and analyze the same at the data analytics platform which is stored at the HKT Enterprise Cloud. The business environment is monitored in real-time, with predictions and business intelligence being continuously sent to enterprises for capturing business opportunities.

HKT, together with its mobile arm, 1O1O, delivers best-in-class, end-to-end IoT solutions, including consultancy, delivery, maintenance, technical support and managed services to enterprise customers. HKT aims at helping businesses to optimize operations, and enhancing the overall experience for consumers, ultimately driving better performance for enterprises.

Mr. Tom Chan, Managing Director, Commercial Group, HKT, said, "Powered by our leading fixed and mobile networks and multiple advanced connectivity technologies, we are pleased to develop the most comprehensive IoT ecosystem with end-to-end solutions in Hong Kong. We strongly believe that IoT is a disruptive technology that will drive digital transformation across many industries in Hong Kong."

HKT demonstrated to business partners and the media how IoT solutions can help enterprises enhance their efficiencies, improve customer experience, and maximize their profitability in the long-run. The followings are comments from some of our customers:

The Hong Kong and China Gas Company Limited: "We started to explore NB-IoT technology development with 1O1O to enhance our existing Automated Meter Reading (AMR) system in early 2017. In the past few months, we conducted a NB-IoT pilot in various districts around Hong Kong with 1O1O, and were satisfied with the results. It has proven that their coverage and the much stronger signal penetration of NB-IoT are very suitable for enhancing our AMR system. We do expect that this new technology will help Towngas further improve our effective resources planning and ultimately deliver better services to our customers."

Hopewell Holding Limited: "Tenants' comfort and enjoyment of a good physical environment is important to Hopewell. 1O1O's sophisticated facility management solution is effective to ensure that air quality of our facilities is monitored and maintained at a high standard 24x7. The solution enables immediate action to address any potential air quality concern during tenants' renovation work and it drives improvement among our operations. Delivering premium service quality is always our commitment. Our attention to good air quality is the proof of our service excellence."

Great Loyal Logistics Limited: "As a logistics company whose vision is to provide the best cargo services with the most cost-effective solutions, the safest and fastest delivery of customers' goods is always our priority. The IoT fleet management solution integrated with a Real-time Imaging (RTI) solution proposed by HKT and 1O1O definitely fits our needs. Both customers and our management team can access location and status of the goods anytime and anywhere. The solution also helps us save costs and optimize our operations by monitoring drivers' behavior and offer real-time delivery information. These insights are very helpful for us to enhance our service to customers."
