Our guest in this episode is Matt Negaard. He’s been involved in sales and business development roles, product development, roles responsible for technical requirements, led entire teams, and he doesn’t hold back in sharing what he’s learned as a product portfolio owner within IoT and IIoT. 

If you like learning from the experience, stories, and thought processes of other IoT professionals, this is your chance to learn what his takeaways have been evangelizing IoT through the years prior to the mass consideration of wireless and cloud-based solutions that we see today. Whether you've been in the IoT space for years or you're looking to get into the space and want to know what it’s like working on connected products and what it takes to get them out into the world, you'll walk away with some great takeaways.

In this episode, we’re looking at how connectivity decisions are made in the oil & gas industry and the factors that influence investments in new technology.

This conversation is less about what they are building, but why an industry that’s resistant to change and slow to adopt new technology is pushing forward with big investments in tech that’s reliant on connectivity.

To make the most sense of how change happens, we need to address an important question, “Who picks up the phone when the energy companies call looking for answers?” Look no further than today’s guests Jeff and Scott from Logix Sales & Marketing.

Digitalization is an incredibly dense topic, especially when we’re talking about the digitalization of knowledge within a workforce. Not as a way to replace people, but to preserve the knowledge that allows us to trust the feedback systems (whether it’s analog or digital) and bring confidence back into our decision-making.

Connectivity, data collection, and sensors are only as good as the underlying data models, assumptions, and the data science we apply to a solution … to which our guest said during the panel, “you know, long ago we had another name for data science, it was called math”

So what does this conversation have to do with connectivity? Everything. 

Digitization goes well beyond individual discrete data points and it’s clear that the data we need to make meaningful decisions doesn’t stop at the four walls of a facility — it requires pulling data from “out there”.
