• M2M is an important connectivity tool relevant for a multitude of industries – e.g. Manufacturing, Logistics & transportation, Healthcare, Retail and consumers.
  
• Manufacturing- RFID and M2M can come together and a huge opportunity can open up in sub sectors ranging from aerospace to oil and gas to   electronics across applications such as inventory management, shipping and delivery, tracking parts, work in progress and employee data .
  
• Healthcare- M2M can be used in body sensors, remote monitoring, remote diagnostic services, etc.The global market for M2M healthcare applications is estimated to be substantially high. Machina Research values it as €69 billion in 2020.
• Transportation & Logistics- The key application areas are tracking of high-value assets and vehicles, monitoring of entire supply chains, vehicle navigational systems (which has potential both for commercial vehicles as well as consumer cars), etc.
