Internet of Things Vertical Conversations

Government Government remains the most referenced vertical in

November. Reports around China’s ambitions to lead

the IoT space emerged whilst examples of recent

government initiatives (UK’s ‘smart city’) already

prove the applicability.

Top 3

Healthcare M2M conversations dominated November’s IoT

agenda and healthcare remains an often cited sector.

‘Connected healthcare’ is one of the newly coined

terms and GE already calculated the potential

benefits (1 hour of added productivity)

Manufacturing McKinsey kicked things off last month with a report on

the manufacturing future which sparked the M2M

conversation further amongst other things.

Top 10 Public IOT Insights

Environmental concerns continue to grow deeper. Cities need to manage their carbon footprint and improve sustainability

City Challenges

Cities need to better manage their infrastructure to address key social, environmental and economic concerns

City Challenges

Rapid urbanization • 50 % of world population lives in the cities • 6.3 Billion will live in cities in 2050, up 70% from

3.6 Billion in 2010

Implication

Environmental pressure • Cities are responsible for between 60-80% of the

world’s energy and GHG emissions • Cities consume 60% of all water and lose as much

as 20% in leakage

Cities need to manage livability index more than ever to retain and attract trade, commerce & talent

Economic pressure • Large section of developed world will grow

between only 0-2% in 2013 • Recent economic recovery has not resulted in

proportional job growth

Pressure on the city infrastructure will continue to rise. Maintaining citizen quality of life is going to be a challenge

• Data Security - Machine intelligence to discover, analyze and secure IOT deployments

- Layered defense approach

• Cloud-based Big Data Analytics - Trending analysis for patterns and correlations

- Predictive/behavior analytics

- Analyze program integrity to identify problems

Application/Service Enablement

• Data Visualization - Extraction of meaningful information from raw data

- Incorporate GIS for location information

- 2D to 3D visualization

• Collaborative Data Sharing - Standardized open data interfaces

- Rich data sets across departmental silos

Application/Service Enablement - continued

• Build platform for smart city - Build foundation system for the first solution and reuse for roll out of additional

services

• Collaborative ecosystem - No single company can do it all

- Group of companies collaborate on solutions that run on top of foundational platform

• Citywide communications network is one of the key foundations for smart city readiness
