The Director of the ICT Institute believes that IoT strategy should not be seen as an (emerging) technology but rather as an element of an ecosystem comprising a community of universities, markets and private sector , etc. as well as socio-cultural values, regulatory and rights factors, and achieving (or maintaining) a balance between these competing challenges.
During an opening talk, given at a seminar held on Jan. the 28th, entitled "Solutions for Developing IOT in Iran", he told participants that: "during the past year serious activities on IoT road map for Iran have been conducted and this event provides a good opportunity to report latest progress and updates". He emphasized the Institute's position on this issue by saying that: " we do not intend to enter into (national) initiatives where they can be run by private sector and financed by capital investors", reiterating that: " our role will be solely in the provision of all necessary infrastructural supports and encouragement of non-governmental players, in order to expedite the pace of IOT development across the country".
