There’s a vast chasm between the hype and reality with today's IoT buzz. Here is a preview of the trends, predictions, value domains and routes to make your own initiatives a success.
3. The ‘Internet of Things’ is here and now.
It’s approachable and viable opportunities are everywhere.
Intro’
Beyond the technology lie real challenges, namely to
identify and capture value,
To sell your ‘story’ and simplify complexities.
There’s a vast chasm between the hype and reality,
but here’s a preview, of the trends, predictions, value domains
and routes to make your own initiatives a success.

23. What competitors
are out there?
Order Out of Chaos
Who has a problem we
can solve?
What existing skills can we
wrap into a product?
How do we market our
products, especially to
different verticals?
Will prospects understand
the technology easily?
What partners do we
rely on to provide our
service?
How does the market expect
to pay for solution now?
How do we approach pricing
for our complex solution?
Should we make existing
products better, faster,
more efficient?
Do we improve old business
processes?
Do we look for entirely new
opportunities?
How do we keep our current
market healthy?

2. Solution fit
4. Market fit
5. Ecosystem fit
3. Pricing fit
1. Product vs Bespoke Become Product OR Consultancy focused
Can you identify a real customer - Today?
How do customers expect to pay, and how do
you portray the total perceived value?
Who are the other players focusing on new
innovation? Who are the existing players?
Beyond the market, IoT is about ecosystem,
to create mutual value across domains,
between stakeholders, in specific settings

What can you do?
25. Mobile apps - Use an existing hardware platform (Already mature, everyone has
one in their pocket, packed with unused tech’)
A possible route - Making use of assets around you
Cloud computing - Highly scalable services for recurring revenue (Integrate and
make use of multiple platform, consider Everything-as-a-service)
Wearables/Platform - Building and owning your platform is a huge
endeavour and a vibrant community is key (third-party developers become
advocates and revenue sources)
Big Data - Service enrichment - Platform means metadata, and a great
opportunity to capture knowledge from dimensional domains, allowing new
recurring revenue sources to materialise fast (Consider tesla auto-pilot)
IoT - Frictionless transaction services, data brokerage across dimensional
markets (Interoperability between all of the above)
26. Get excited with consumer IoT - Learn their inner workings, the app design, the interactions,
appreciate how the technology responds, learn about the sensor data, think about them in different setting
Tom’s top tips
The geeks aren’t customers - They’re hardcore, they want everything for nothing, and they want to
build it themselves
Don’t sell it all on your ‘first date’ - It’ll just overwhelm your prospect
‘IoT’ isn’t a USP!
Don’t compare traditional competitor solutions for the sake of analogy -
Place them as complementors in the value chain, find a totally different analogy
Dimensional business models - Products that can create future value in later stages (Only tell
customers one story at a time, but look at the settings for later revenue)
