Software industry body Nasscom's Centre of Excellence for IoT and Georgia Tech Advanced Research (GTARC) have signed an agreement for advancing Internet of Things (IoT).
GTARC provides contracting, grant, and research administration services for the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI).
Nasscom’s CoE-IoT is engaged in building talent, supporting startups and creating applications for some of India's key projects such as

The two will work and share information across a variety of sectors - from industrial, healthcare, agriculture and smart homes, and the use of IoT to improve productivity with reduced natural resource use.
Georgia Tech focuses on emerging technologies and Nasscom hopes both will mutually benefit from the partnership.
