Influential IoT Leader of the Year 2025
SPECIAL FEATURE

AaronArdiri
In a world increasingly driven by connectivity, few voices resonate as clearly as that of Aaron Ardiri, the CEO and co-founder of RIoT Secure. With over three decades of experience in embedded systems and mobile technology, Ardiri is no stranger to complexity. But it's his vision for a safer, smarter IoT landscape that truly sets him apart—and it's earned him recognition as the Influential IoT Leader of the Year. Ardiri’s journey into IoT didn’t begin with a business plan—it began with a life-altering event. In 2017, just moments after he and a few colleagues passed through a busy area in Stockholm, a terrorist attack occurred. That moment underscored something vital for him: the importance of secure, responsive technology in the real world.
