The "Quarterly Trend Report: What CEOs Talked about in Q1 2024" is part of IoT Analytics' ongoing coverage of the IoT and related technology markets. The information presented in this report is based on a database of 85,000+ earnings calls of US-listed companies from Q1 2019 through Q1 2024 . Every quarter, IoT Analytics analyzes trends that emerge in the earnings calls and presents findings for the most recent quarter. The purpose is to inform other market participants about the current focus of CEOs and companies. To ensure objectivity, IoT Analytics did not alter or supplement any results and did not exclude any earnings call deliberately.

Do we know where AI technologies add the most value to your company and might help us differentiate from our competition?
