Honeywell: Kuwait building owners and operators have unparalleled IoT opportunity

Honeywell president says Kuwait buildings are becoming increasingly online and connected

Honeywell’s president in Kuwait, Iraq, Jordan and Lebanon George Bou Mitri says Kuwait’s National Development Plan 2035 is an unparalleled opportunity to “harness” the power of the Internet of Things IoT.

Speaking at the ‘Experience the IoT Evolution in Kuwait’s Future Smart Buildings’ technology symposium, Paolo Cervini, Honeywell Building Solutions’ president for the Middle East, Russia, Turkey and Africa added that building owners and operators are striving to drive safety, productivity and efficiency improvements in Kuwait and other countries in the region .

“Kuwait is modernising its national infrastructure and focusing on smart city developments under the ambitious Kuwait National Development Plan 2035. Driven by these initiatives, buildings are becoming increasingly online and connected, presenting building owners and operators with an unparalleled opportunity to harness the power of the Internet of Things and realise previously unobtainable levels of safety, productivity and efficiency,” said Mitri.

The symposium reviewed the evolution of digital transformation in Kuwait, with a focus on the significant impact data analytics, IoT and cloud solutions have on the development of buildings, cities and real estate projects.

Mitri added: “Through this symposium we are demonstrating how Kuwait’s building owners and operators can capitalise on the IoT revolution to meet their objectives, and underscoring our commitment to supporting the country as it embarks on transforming its national infrastructure through cutting-edge innovation.”

Honeywell also showcased solutions that are making buildings smarter and more connected across several industry verticals, including healthcare, airports and premium commercial facilities during the event.

“Our customers in Kuwait and across the region are highly innovative, and are focused on becoming even more data-driven,” commented Cervini. “They are looking for ways to not only generate more data from their buildings, but turn that data into business insight that helps them drive safety, productivity and efficiency improvements.

“It is this demand that we have addressed at today’s building technology symposium, by bringing together senior figures in the industry to learn how we are making data more accessible and actionable for those who need it most – from security to facilities to the C-suite.”
