## Summary

John Candish, Head of IoT Products at SAP Digital Interconnect, explains how SAP IoT Connect 365 simplifies global enterprise connectivity by abstracting the complexity of multiple mobile operators and network technologies. He details how poor connectivity disrupts just-in-time manufacturing and supply chain visibility, creating significant operational risks for intelligent enterprises. Candish also discusses the role of AI in managing edge connectivity resilience and the strategic importance of planning for long-term scalability and security from the initial deployment phase.
