Presentation Abstract
The value of the Internet of Things has been estimated in the trillions of dollars. Missing from the projections, however, are specifics about how businesses can tap into those trillions to create – and ultimately realize – actual revenue and value-add benefits from an Internet connectivity strategy. Bryan Kennedy, VP of Strategic Development for Internet of Things connectivity platform Electric Imp, will provide insight into the following four areas in which businesses can derive value:
- Product differentiation
- Reengineering and improving effectiveness of business operations behavior
- Revenue generating mechanisms
- Insights into user
