    "Peter's immensely relevant experience and longstanding US connections in the technology industry will be invaluable to our entry into the US market and negotiating valued partnership and client agreements," said Quantify Managing Director, Mark Lapins.

    "The IoT market in the US is expanding at a rapid rate. This market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 33.3% to reach US$661 billion by 2021 as the adoption of cloud platforms, development of cheaper and smarter sensors and evolution of high speed networking technologies drive growth. It is one of world's largest and most important market for IoT and smart building innovations, and having someone with Peter's experience and business networks will be a great benefit to us."
