LoRa Alliance announcement

LoRa Alliance reports 125 Million LoRaWAN end devices deployed globally

The LoRa Alliance, the global association of companies backing the open LoRaWAN standard for internet of things (IoT) low-power wide-area networks (LPWANs), has announced that its members have surpassed 125 million global deployments of LoRaWAN end devices. This marks a significant step, underscoring the rapid and sustained adoption of the leading LPWAN standard. With a 25% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) across its ecosystem, LoRaWAN has proven its maturity and scalability as it enters this exponential growth phase. Additionally, the Alliance noted that when factoring in the largest networks with multi-million-device deployments, some vendors are achieving CAGRs as high as 50%.
