Over the years now, I’ve been involved in the development of tens of IoT initiatives with my clients and there is only one thing they all have in common… Every one of them pivoted. And I don’t mean little pivots, I mean 180-degree pivots. The lesson here is to pivot fast and pivot early otherwise there’s a good chance you’re not going to make it out of Pilot Purgatory. In this episode of the IoT Business Show, I speak with Phil Regenie about his early pivot and the lessons learn in taking his Senior care product to the pilot stage.

It’s no secret that the IIoT is enabling manufacturing to go through its next revolution. Some call it Industrie 4.0, but it goes further than the shop floor. The Industrial Internet (of Things) is virtualizing the entire manufacturing industry from supply chain to factory to distribution and along the way is having a profound effect on the workforce and the equipment used. In this episode of the IoT Business Show, I speak with Tanja Rueckert about the hot topics of connected manufacturing and asset intelligence.

IoT consumer products are more expensive than their traditional counterparts, often by an order of magnitude. Not good but makes sense – the tech needs to be financed. But however innovative the products are, higher pricing will cause a headwind. Part of the problem is consumer IoT products are still being sold with traditional product business models. In this episode of the IoT Business Show, I speak with Nate Williams about the opportunity to innovate consumer IoT business models.

The smart home or connected home makes life good. Comfortable. Reminiscent of the Jetson’s in many ways. But business models aside, today’s big question, at least for me, is if it really is a DIY (do it yourself) market as it’s currently being betrayed. Not so easy to install. Not so easy to repair, so is it better to be handled by the professionals (installers, integrators, service providers)? You can paint your house but do you want to when professionals can be hired?

If your company is collecting data, and every IoT company collects data, it needs a formal “Information SecurityProgram”. We’ve talked risk assessment in the past, that is the process of assigning liability to each potential security breach, but that’s only part of the program. In this episode of the IoT business Show, I speak with John Ansbach about the rest of the“Information Security Program”, impending regulation and privacy concerns.
