FARMINGDALE, NY -- Cemtrex has established a new subsidiary to pursue both organic and inorganic growth opportunities in the Internet of Things and wearables markets.

Through its new subsidiary, Cemtrex Advanced Technologies, the company is leveraging its existing design and engineering experience in developing advanced electronic products for third parties to create its own proprietary products and solutions for IoT applications. The company plans to pursue collaborative partnerships with OEMs that are looking to incorporate intelligence and connectivity into  everyday products such as furniture, consumer wearables, industrial safety wearables, and other enterprise and consumer devices. Cemtrex will look to focus on developing systems, hardware solutions for consumer and industry applications, and software applications.

According to a recent Business Insider report, there will be 34 billion devices connected to the Internet by 2020, up from 10 billion in 2015, where IoT devices will account for 24 billion. The report estimates that nearly $6 trillion will be spent on IoT solutions over the next five years. Not only will the number of electronics increase, but the density of electronics per device will also be increasing substantially.

In a statement, Cemtrex chairman and CEO Saagar Govil said, "As we have expanded Cemtrex's operations to exceed $100 million in revenues over the last twelve months, we have developed a new roadmap to reach our next milestone of $500 million in revenue. Our goal is to continue broadening the capabilities and breadth of the company. We plan to develop proprietary technology, as well as work in collaboration with industry leaders to develop next generation connected intelligent products. We see this as an inflection point of the company as we prepare for the next phase of growth over the next five years."
