What
a
difference
a
century
makes:
This
year
in
March,
German
Chancellor
Angela
Merkel
opened
CeBIT
with
its
partner
country
UK.
The
BriMsh
Prime
Minister
David
Cameron
keynoted:
“
Take
BriMsh
ingenuity
in
soRware,
services
and
design,
add
German
excellence
in
engineering
and
industrial
manufacturing
and
together
we
can
lead
in
this
new
revoluMon.”
The
revoluMon
he
is
talking
about
is
the
Internet
of
Things
(IoT)
–
an
area
in
which
both
countries
see
huge
potenMals.
The
UK
government
will
spend
an
extra
£45m
on
developing
IoT
technology:
"I
see
the
internet
of
things
as
a
huge
transformaMve
development
–
a
way
of
boosMng
producMvity,
of
keeping
us
healthier,
making
transport
more
efficient,
reducing
energy
needs,
tackling
climate
change."
With
Germany’s
long-­‐standing
manufacturing
tradiMon,
Industry
4.0
is
also
one
of
the
projects
for
the
future
under
the
German
government’s
High-­‐Tech
Strategy.

4. We
can
call
this
progress
indeed.
But
for
Europe
to
become
leading
in
IoT,
a
lot
more
is
needed.
This
work
needs
to
be
done
primarily
by
the
engineering
/
technological
communiMes,
whether
it
is
in
research,
large
industry
or
SME.
They
have
to
become
more
poliMcal.
I
do
not
make
this
statement
out
of
the
blue
–
this
has
been
done
before.
I
think
of
Robert
Bosch:
It
is
exactly
because
of
the
strong
focus
on
society
and
ethics
that
he
was
able
to
lay
the
foundaMons
for
what
is
currently
one
of
the
largest
privately
held
company
on
earth.
The
kind
of
world
that
I
want
and
that
is
within
reach
for
the
Internet
of
Things
provides
generic
infrastructures
that
are
open
for
even
smallest
communiMes
to
the
scale
of
1
to
build
applicaMons,
services
and
personalized
hardware
on
and
from.
council

5. The
crucial
next
step
is
building
a
EU
pladorm
that
aligns
the
technological
realiMes
of
today
with
the
decision
making
systems
that
are
complexity
friendly.
And
this
is
a
job
for
engineers
and
makers,
the
Internet
of
Things
community
that
is
a
radically
new
intelligence
that
resembles
that
of
the
old
guilds
but
is
a
highly
connected
dynamic
amalgam
of
large
industry,
individual
Mnkerers,
30.000
makers
involved
in
IoT
Meetups,
loosely
organized
hacker
networks
all
demanding
more
common
sense,
accountability
and
real
Mme
data
streams
informing
decision-­‐making
whether
it
is
about
health,
home,
mobility,
city
or
global
issues
like
Climate
Change.
