- Building Smarter Cities: The Power of Data - We talk IoT #29
By 2050 over 2,5 billion people are predicted to live in cities. How can our roads, public transport systems and our nerves sustain this? As cities keep growing and infrastructure suffers, can IoT and data help?
A smart city can leverage data sources, from vehicle movement to energy use and water distribution. If you put all this information into context, city planners and citizens alike can make better decisions.
Are you ready to learn how cities can become smarter? In this episode, we discuss the importance of data in creating efficient and effective city services. Marek Suchocki from Autodesk shares his insights into the benefits of having structured and integrated data sets and why sharing data with the right people can lead to smarter cities. We also address the crucial issue of data security. Join us as we explore the world of smart cities and discover what it takes to make them a reality.

38 min - IoT innovation is about strategy and mindset - We talk IoT #28
With the Internet of Things, many things are possible. The potential of connectivity by design is huge. But randomly collecting data doesn’t turn it into gold overnight. Without a strategy and the right mindset, data itself has limited value. To build a long-term scalable business model strategy, monetarization and education of employees must go hand in hand.
In this episode, we learn from Max Morwind how data can generate value for any company. No matter the industry or size. If you do the work and invest in a solid strategy first and the necessary, culture and mindset change.
