During the pandemic, many companies failed because they could not adapt—but others found incredible success by pivoting to new business models. And this trend is likely to continue, as the retail and hospitality sector remains unpredictable. (Just look at the supply chain issues!)

Digital transformation is a key factor in separating the winners from the losers. Businesses that make data an integral part of their physical operations gain the flexibility to make rapid changes. But many stores and restaurants don’t have a way to do this with their current tools.

That is where the power of edge-to-cloud architecture comes into play. In this podcast, we talk about what it means to be a physical retail space in today’s digital world, the changing customer expectations and how to address them, and how edge + cloud can power smart retail omnichannel experiences.

Join us as we explore these ideas with: Richard Newman, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder of Reliant Kenton Williston, Editor-in-Chief for insight.tech

Richard answers our questions about

• The evolution of the retail space and customer expectations
• The move toward cloud-based and edge architectures
• How retailers should rethink their physical spaces
• The importance of flexible IT hardware
• How to overcome resistance to change
• The importance of transforming physical spaces
• Navigating around the technical complexity of edge-based systems

Smart cities are nice, but what about smart communities?

By focusing on people who live in cities, the same technology could be used to transform public spaces and improve daily lives. For instance, warnings could be sent to oncoming vehicles about pedestrians in the crosswalk. Or pedestrians could be alerted to vehicles approaching at high speed. Parents could even have peace of mind knowing their local park is protected with real-time monitoring.

With the right technology partner, there are so many opportunities to make communities safer, smarter, and more connected. In this podcast, we explore what a smart community encompasses, the benefits for both citizens and cities, and the technology partnerships that go into making this all possible.

Join us as we explore these ideas with: Ken Mills, Chief Executive Officer for IntelliSite Justin Christiansen, General Manager of IoT Platform & Solution Sales at Intel®Kenton Williston, Editor-in-Chief for insight.tech

Ken and Justin answer our questions about:
