Telenor Group recognised as a Leader in the 2022 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Managed IoT Connectivity Services, Worldwide

Stockholm, Sweden - 7 February 2022 - This is the third time in a row Telenor Group is in the Leaders Quadrant in recognition of the company’s overall completeness of vision and ability to execute. Just like last year, Telenor is the only Nordic operator recognised in the report.

Commenting on the report, Mats Lundquist, CEO of Telenor Connexion, says: “We are very proud to, once again, being recognised as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Managed IoT Connectivity Services, Worldwide. To us, this is a fantastic achievement and a result of the strategic focus and joint efforts on IoT within the entire Telenor Group. We are, of course, particularly proud of the continued trust and satisfaction from our customers which we believe is a key reason why we are positioned as a Leader in the Magic Quadrant.”

Gartner describes companies in the Leaders quadrant as: “Leaders invest in the future of IoT that includes a continuum of value from IoT edge devices to IoT platforms and related analytics. Leaders perform skilfully and often exceed expectations. Leaders have a clear vision of the market’s direction and develop competencies to maintain their leadership. Leaders engage customers and provide value across multiple geographies. They shape the market, rather than follow it, and they often set the benchmark for market growth. Leaders have the size and scale (for example, operations, sales and marketing, formal bid, and product management) to pursue large pan regional and multinational opportunities for IoT connectivity. They have established a robust and diverse ecosystem of technology alliances and service delivery partnerships spanning IT, OT and IoT to meet broad market requirements.”
