This overview is a compilation of my own storytelling experiences over the past 9 years, first assisting clients designing M2M devices and helping them navigate the carrier certification process, then aligning with emerging Middleware/IOT Cloud platform providers early in 2011. Since then I've consulted and assisted companies across many IOT market verticals and have delivered keynotes to many audiences including enterprises, Tier 2 and Tier 3 service providers, MSO's and Utility companies on how to deploy a carrier grade IOT service delivery model for the creation of new MRR models across all market verticals. Whether you are attempting to enter the market by aligning with an existing IOT ECO-System provider like AWS or would like to create your own, I hope you find this thought provoking and informative as we carve our way into the wild, wild future of digital transformation.
2. The New Industrial Advancement
In the last 200+ years there have been three industrial revolutions and we are on the verge of the fourth one.
Industry 1.0: Two centuries ago, James
Watt’s vapor powered technology
created novel mechanical
manufacturing techniques. This led to
the First Industrial Revolution,
characterized by machine-supported
production. The result was a step-
change in productivity as well as the
emergence of completely new industry
segments, like textile production,
chemicals, metallurgy, and so forth.
Industry 2.0: The second Industrial
Revolution followed at the beginning of
the 20th century. It was Henry Ford’s
Invention of the production/assembly
line that enabled a new kind of mass
production and a division of labor. A
key driver of this revolution was the
widespread availability of electrical
energy.
Industry 3.0: The Third
Industrial Revolution, which
began in the early 1970’s, is
characterized by the increasing
use of electronics, integrated
circuits and IT systems to achieve
a new kind of automated
production (e.g., through the
use of automated robots).
Industry 4.0: As many
leaders, scientists and
engineers point out the
world is currently in the early
stages of the Forth Industrial
Revolution which is about to
bring yet another major
change to economies and
societies.

4. How Will IOT Transform The Supply Chain?
The number of things connected to the
internet is approaching ten billion. Over
the next ten years or so that number is
estimated to balloon to over one
trillion.
The big story in the internet of things
(IoT) is the "things", they are becoming
smart and connected. The IoT and
smart, connected products present the
most significant technology disruption of
our generation.
That statement is underscored by
research that suggests that IOT will
generate in excess of eleven trillion
dollars in annual economic value by the
year 2025.

5. Sizing The Opportunity Today?
M2M Marketing Concepts Proprietary and Confidential
Three years ago (2014), industry pundits
and analysts predicted that, by 2020, the
market for connected devices would be
between 50 billion and 100 billion units.
Today, the forecast is for a more
reasonable but still sizable 20 billion or
30 billion units.
This leveling off of expectations is in
line with what we have seen in past
introductions of new technologies.
6. Emerging Standards
M2M Marketing Concepts Proprietary and Confidential
Over the past two years, semiconductor
players have joined forces with hardware,
networking, and software companies, and
with a number of industry associations and
academic consortiums, to develop formal
and informal standards for Internet of Things
applications.
AT&T, Cisco, GE, IBM, and Intel, for instance,
cofounded the “Industrial Internet
Consortium”, whose primary goal is to
establish interoperability standards across
industrial environments so that data about
fleets, machines, and facilities can be
accessed and shared more reliably.
Other groups have been focused on
standardizing the application programming
interfaces (APIs) that enable basic
commands and data transfer among
Internet of Things devices.
7. Emerging IOT Value Chain
M2M Marketing Concepts Proprietary and Confidential
IoT involves the tracking of one or more of four main areas:
• Goods
• Assets
• people
• processes.
By collecting detailed
information about
even the smallest
transactions,
companies expect
their IoT initiatives will
provide broader
operational and
actionable data that
can be used to
enhance supply
chains, mitigate loss
and risk and empower
process and cost
optimization. The
biggest challenge is
collecting and
analyzing the right
data.

Usage Scenarios For Mobile Technologies
The 4IR will continue to shift the balance
between mobile and fixed networks
To improve mobile broadband, 5G technologies are
envisaged to provide much faster data transfer, 1 gigabyte
per second and reduced latency.
By consolidating existing layers of technology, such as 2G,
3G, 4G and Wi-Fi, 5G will also improve coverage and
always-on reliability—it is an ensemble of different
technologies, rather than a single type of new technology.
Although the experience of those previous suggests
that new uses for 5G will emerge after deployment.
Two key areas already anticipated for 5G:
• Providing gigabit connectivity for businesses
and consumers for a range of content,
applications and services (Top of the pyramid):
• Enabling ultra-reliable, low latency machine-
to-machine (M2M) communication (Bottom
of the pyramid), which will help to achieve
objectives in other infrastructure systems
such as easing congestion.
