Current report

Focus Universal signed a contract with Shenzhen Donghui Precision Mold Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and officially commenced the mold tooling design for the Universal Smart Internet of Things (IoT) today. This marks a pivotal milestone in the commercialization of the Universal Smart IoT, a breakthrough that has been over two decades in the making. With two decades of innovation, we are now ready to move forward with full-scale production and commercialization. In doing so, we not only fulfill our promise to shareholders but also demonstrate to the world that deploying complex IoT technology can be as easy as plugging in an office phone. Our platform provides both a competitive edge and cost savings even when compared to traditional, non-IoT devices—thanks to universal hardware and software shared across all sensors. Switching from one sensor to another requires no change to the underlying device’s hardware or software, enabling true interoperability across devices.

We believe universal wireless smart technology will play a critical role for traditional instrument manufacturers, as currently the undertaking of an IoT project is simply too expensive and difficult to develop for medium or smaller companies and carries a 75% failure rate according to Cisco Systems. The cost factor is the first consideration when deciding whether a company wants to develop smart wireless technologies and implement them into their products or use them in their field testing. We also hope to play a role in academic laboratories, particularly with smaller academic laboratories that are sensitive to price. Regarding the larger IoT industry statistics, overall enterprise IoT spending increased to $201 billion in 2022, an increase of 21.5%. The outlook for growth in 2023 is 18.5% from this large base of enterprise spending. More specifically, the IoT sensors market is projected to reach $26 billion by 2026 from $11.1 billion in 2022. The IoT marketplace size assessments usually include the hardware components and the software components, which often contain a Software as a Service (SaaS) model. Additionally, the rising need for reliable high bandwidth communication for IoT devices is expected to rise to $664.75 billion in 2028, spearheaded by the currently predominant services in the 5G category. We would also expect this market to grow with the addition of new categories of services delivering reliable high bandwidth communication for IoT devices and would cannibalize and expand the existing services where the new services proved to be more effective and efficient.
