Most industrial IoT deployments struggle with the same challenge: dozens of pilot projects that never reach production scale.

Volvo Group broke this cycle with a strategic transformation connecting hundreds of millions of assets across 140 factories worldwide. The secret wasn't just technology — it was organizational change that unified scattered efforts into production-scale success.

Volvo Group IoT Expert Julien Bertolini joins the podcast to share insights from one of the world's largest industrial IoT deployments, including:

• How to escape pilot purgatory and scale from prototypes to production
• Why multi-technology approaches are essential for industrial environments
• Building IoT communities and citizen development strategies
• Real-world use cases from AGV predictive maintenance to massive asset tracking
• Why quality IoT data is the foundation that makes AI actually work
• The convergence of IoT and AI for competitive advantage

Tune in to hear how strategic IoT transformation unlocks AI potential at an industrial scale.

The IoT industry is at a turning point.

Fragmentation has exposed deep cracks in connectivity models, while 5G promises speeds that legacy frameworks simply can't handle. However, a solution may lie in rethinking how IoT connections work.

In this episode, Lee Walkey, a seasoned IoT expert, joins Nick Earle to explore the roadblocks and realities of building scalable IoT networks. They discuss:

• Why traditional roaming can't support global IoT deployments
• How commercial incentives and outdated models hold back progress
• The need for a federated approach to achieve out-of-the-box IoT connectivity

Nick and Lee reveal how an airline-style federation of operators, combined with SaaS-based platforms, offers a way forward. They also explore how this shift could change the IoT sector as 5G expands.

Tune in to learn why it's time to move beyond roaming, rethink connectivity, and build the future of IoT.
