In this week's episode, Rob, Leonard, and Marc jump on Web3 broadcasted Mobile World Congress 2023 in Las Vegas to talk about the purpose of events in a post-pandemic era. Are they worth it? Just a few weeks ago, everyone was going nuts over how it was so awesome to have face-to-face meetings again. Honestly, it is still the case, but is the purpose missing from many of these industry events that have put selling stuff and visions ahead of solving problems?

It just might be the case. So can we expect event organizations like GSMA to pivot and focus on things that matter rather than stuff like "Earth Computing"? 

We think so, and it will be for the better because 5G is not having a good time at the moment.

Welcome to IoT Coffee Talk #174 where we have a chat about all things IoT over a cup of coffee or two with some of the industry's leading business minds, thought leaders and technologists in a totally unscripted, organic format. Thanks for joining us. Sit back with a cup of Joe and enjoy the morning banter.

In this week's episode, Leonard, Rob and Bill mine Web3 to dig up nuggets of knowledge on the digital disruption of industries stemming from a rather meandering chat about music and how digital technologies have transformed the music industry but may have also had a dulling impact on artistic innovation and creativity by fostering an epoch of cut and paste music. Doesn't that make artistry that much more valuable and precious? Maybe not?

We also talk about the new Apple iPhone 15 versus Samsung's Galaxy S23 Ultra. Which has the better camera? Which one is changing the game?

We break down why digital transformation looks so good on paper, but it ends up being a little more complex and why organizations struggle. We provide the dirty laundry view, not the HBS diluted academic view.

In this week's episode, Rob, Stephanie, Bill, Ryan, Steve, and Marc jump on Web3 broadcasted from Bandera TX, and Austin TX at Applied Intelligence Live 2023. This week the gang talks about how IoT has been orphaned and has been adopted by other buzzword and hyped stuff like AI, quantum, and other stuff that will eventually get deflated.

All jokes aside, we get brutally practical about AI at the edge, 5G on the factory floor, and the prospects of private networks for IoT. Is the value shifting where things like neutral host models and 5G connected shop floors will make sense soon? The gang also hits on digital twin as Rob is slated to jump on a panel with the Godfather of digital twins, Dr. Michael Grieves!

Victoria makes a cameo so don't miss out!

In this week's episode, Bill, Stephanie, Rob, Leonard and special guest, Jeff Gavlinkski of Mountain Connect, jump into the metaverse to Party Up! (R.I.P. DMX) and talk about BEAD and how Rob and Leonard live in underserved communities that are supposed to be "5G coverage" areas. 

We talk about the importance of the maps and data that may or may not do a great job of helping us figure out where billions in U.S. Federal funding goes to connect EVERYONE! 

How do we assure that we minimize fraud and waste and arm communities and service providers with the technologies and know-how to deploy the "best" connectivity solutions to build out their infrastructure? 

What role will 5G play and will it live up enough to expectations to bridge the digital divide reliably and at a low cost.

Find out why Rob is WMX, DMX's alter ego.

Can we do better than Emergency SOS in light of the tragedy in Maui and other places that have and will suffer natural and unnatural catastrophe?

We also delve into the complexities and challenges of planning, designing, and implementing heterogeneous connectivity solutions that keep costs low and help projects meet their BEAD commitments to the U.S. government and ultimately taxpayers who are fronting the bill to foster connected equity.

You will want to watch this one all the way through. The nuggets are hidden and could make all the difference in your business, so we hope you will take your time. 

Also, check out Mountain Connect at www.mountainconnect.io. It is a great conference. Reach out to Jeff Gavlinski to find out more. 

Great ready to get real!

In this week's episode, Rob, Leonard, Steve, Marc and Wienke jump into the metaverse to talk about all thing happening across the edge that is resulting in clouds forming everywhere from VMware Explore 2023 being held in Las Vegas! The theme of this year's show is multi cloud and generative ai, and that is basically what we talked about. But we kick off by remind Wienke that he should know who Van Halen is with a IoT Coffee Talk rendition of the Van Halen classic, "AMSTERDAM"! We still can't believe that the Dutch don't know who Van Halen is. UNBELIEVABLE!

Also, we finally clarify to the entire IoT universe how to properly pronounce Wienke's name. No, it is not pronounced "winky". Yes, most of us have been butchering his name of years!

In this week's episode, Rob, Leonard, Steve, Marc, Tom and Ryan jump into the middle of Web3 to bring you the best in IoT entertainment kicking things off from Ericsson's Enterprise Industry Analyst event in Boston with the global uncompetitiveness being fostered by regulatory stunts by regions such as the EU and their Digital Markets Act targeted at so-called U.S. Big Tech. Will this help the competitiveness of European firms and industries?

Leonard and Rob talk about how we collectively have not idea what we are going to talk about every week but we know something so we are good with it. 

Steve shares he MJ moment bringing home gold in the senior world basketball championship. Congrats, Steve and Team USA!

Rob gives a beautiful rant about IoT drafting behind the smartphone craze but where are the fanboys and the lines of people waiting to get the latest IoT?

The gang explores why operators have historically scoffed at IoT and why that might not change.

Rob, Bill, and Leonard attended Mountain Connect 2023 in Denver and somehow found themselves on stage with an unwitting Jeff Lewis as well as event CEO, Jeff Gavlinsky. Everyone else got walk on music but we didn't so we went DMX on everyone with a little "Party Up!". This was the first time that IoT Coffee Talk was live on stage at a conference keynote. Yes, we recorded a live session at IoT Stars earlier this year. You should check that episode out as well.

We had a great chance to talk about the digital divide and the role that the BEAD program will have in bridging it. The team works through some of the key challenges that will face municipalities and communities as they apply for grants and go through the tough work of getting the infrastructure up to deliver services to every household in the U.S. 

But equity transcends infrastructure. How do we achieve equity through the massive public-private endeavor that is BEAD? 

Great ready to get real! Make sure to check out Mountain Connect 2023 and consider attending next year to get the latest and the greatest in broadband U.S.A.!

In this week's episode, Leonard, Rob, David, Steve, and Bill jump on Web3 to make good on a historic and tragic lost episode. Yes, after three and a half years, we lost a beautiful episode that featured our magnificent ladies of IoT Coffee Talk, Andreea and Stephanie who are so essential in not making our show a weekly dudefest. We appreciate them!!!

Alas, the episode evaporated and we could not use generative AI to hallucinate that which was lost. But Rob used the power of his human brain equipped with high-bandwidth memory 5.0 to recall the key aspects of a great episode.

Thanks for joining us. Sit back with a cup of Joe and enjoy the morning banter.

In this week's episode, Leonard, Rob, David, Steve, and Bill jump on Web3 to talk about smart buildings and some realities of connecting things wirelessly, why facility managers (the real customer) don't see things the way that Steve sees it, the continued challenges connecting homes and buildings, and why massive IoT matters and why it won't, and can we ever get to a smart home or smart building in a box? This is a must watch for folks who are into smart buildings and homes. 

Shout out to RAK Wireless!!! Facilities managers around the world, we love you and you are brilliant! IoT guys just don't know what they are talking about!!!!

In this week's episode, Leonard, Rob, Marc, and Bill talk about the burning Earth. I know, kind of a depressing topic, but it is real, and Rob got up on the wrong side of the bed and shared how he gets attacked by folks who disagree with saving the planet and humanity. Poor guy. he's only trying to give us hope. Oh, well. Rob tries. 

Somehow we relate our seemingly or passive reluctance to do anything about climate change to the IoT and the challenges that the industry has had in getting industries to see the value of the prototypical value propositions of the Internet of Things. Can we digital twin ourselves out of catastrophe or is the physical twin that all that matters?

In this week's episode, Bill, David, and Rob jump on Web3 to talk about how we would and could not be digital without first being analog. I think they talk about how the IoT is a ADAD environment. Lot's of analog stuff working with digital stuff to measure and test real stuff. That's how IoT keeps things real. The gang also talk about how experience gives us perspective on what is real. It matters and the crew talks about how it is delusional to discount the value of mentorship in bringing people up from their apprenticeship into a level of expertise, skill, and judgement in the field. Bill goes ballistic on the consulting game and what it takes to say no and save yourself the headache.

In this week's episode, Steve, Leonard, Marc, and Rob jump on Web3 to talk about the foundation of IoT, the sensor as Leonard and Steve attend Questex's Fierce Electronics' Sensor Converge 2023 event in Santa Clara, CA. It is the largest sensor trade show in North America and possibly the world. We talk about embedded AI at the edge and on the sensor, HPE's Discover 2023 event and the hybrid cloud phenomenon, spit wads from the back of the station wagon, hybrid cloud, and the hard engineering that goes into the under-appreciated sensor.

In this week's episode, Leonard, Rob, and Bill jump on Web3 to talk about how the IoT can save a young Rob Tiffany from getting eaten by a Grizzly bear when he was way tardy getting back to camp from his mountain hike. Yes, connecting the middle of nowhere is here and it presents some exciting possibilities for tracking and tracing things so that Rob will never have to use a Windows phone's LED screen to illuminate his path in the wilderness. We also talk about how best effort will keep the cloud more remote from the edge than we might have thought and hoped. Rob also proves that human judgement makes us a bit better than the artificial humanity.

In this week's episode, Leonard, Rob, Steve, Tom, Marc, and Bill jump on Web3 for a special 4th of July episode of IoT Coffee Talk to wax nostalgic as Rob visits Bend Oregon and encounters the last Blockbuster Video. Will IoT be of any value when a problem is bigger than what IoT can solve? Sounds like a no. Should we bother? Why is a strong 5G signal not good enough? What is the role of fiber in bringing about equity across the many digital divides? Also, find out why density matters in scaling the economics of connecting everyone.

In this week's episode, Bill, David, Rob, and Marc jump on to Web3 for what happened to be the shortest IoT Coffee Talk episode EVER! It's because Rob doesn't have a Zoom subscription and he dropped Leonard's paid session when we went for some coffee. It was the best discussion on open standards and interoperability that we have had in a very long time. We have standards for gasoline and mobile networks, but why not for IoT? Is it not important enough? Find out in this engaging episode before you slam the door on your foot!!!

In this week's episode, Leonard, Rob, Steve, David, and Bill jump on Web3 to talk about the semiconductor industry. Leonard is at SEMICON West 2023, the big semiconductor manufacturing and design conference. Lot's of chip suggest dropped in this one. We also talk about how badly RFPs suck, the chip and tech war between the US and China, and the prospect that the semiconductor industry will hit $1 trillion by 2030. Is that with or without inflation?

In this week's episode, Andreea, Ryan, Steve, Rob, Leonard, Jan, and Marc jump on to Web3 to talk about the fabled generative AI productivity uplift. Where are we seeing it and where is it just not going to happen? Is quality of output important? If so, what does it take to get generative AI applications to deliver on pretty lofty expectations and perceptions of capability. Do we have enough eyeballs to lend value to the deluge of AI-generated content that is already here and will only get better and worse,... probably at the same time. Is MQTT in vogue again or are people making something old new again because they don't know that it's old. Also, watch Jan get really real and grumpy about GenAI. It's pretty funny. Martin is going to be really upset with him. LOL!

In this week's episode, we celebrate our 3rd anniversary of one of the top IoT shows on the Interwebs!!! Amazing!!! Rob, Jan, Leonard, and David jump on to Web3 broadcasting from PTC's Liveworx event in Boston, MA, to talk about the future of streaming and podcasts and being almost famous in the world of IoT. We also delve into the matters of eSIM, iSIM, and the perennial challenges of global IoT. Leonard provides a tour of PTC's #Liveworx, PLM and how it has evolved over the years, XR and why immersive stuff is tough in industrial, the history and the role of the digital twin and Thingsworx, which was co-founded by Rick Bullota and purchased by PTC, they ask the question of whether 5G will matter in industrial? Of course we can't help but talk about generative AI and the practical approaches that thought-leading vendors are taking in validating and developing valuable applications with the latest hyped tech.

In this week's episode, Rob, Tom, and David broadcast live from Pearl Harbor, HI to talk about the military applications of tech and the interdependency that the private sector has with the military. The guys also talk about the influence that technology has on strategic military advantage, capability, and innovation such as what we are seeing in the Ukraine as Ukrainians are using commercial solutions in creative ways to defeat what many analysts thought were capable Russian platforms with surprising ease and economics. Doing more with less is happening with a new form of techno guerrilla warfare. Super interesting discussion on how situational awareness provided by IoT can make all the difference on the battlefield and in your business.

In this week's episode, Andreea, David, Ryan, Bill, Leonard, Steve, Rob, and Marc jump on to Web3 joined by the illustrious Matt Hatton of Transforma Insights (who bravely enters the IoT House of Pain) to talk about making IoT less risky and insecure. Our collective proposition - take out some of the stupid IoT practices and situations that form at the cusp of collective ignorance (not a bad thing as long you are willing to learn and be enlightened) and negligence (both willful and unintended). We all see it. What can we do to rid of it? Is regulation the answer? More technology? Clearing of dirty laundry?

In this week's episode, Wienke Giezeman, Leonard, Steve, Rob, and Marc jump on to Web3 with a Rebel Yell against techno tribalism which gets in the way of cross-technology innovation. Of course, we had to talk about LoRa and LoRaWAN with our good buddy, Wienke, joining us. How severe are the silos and the techno fandoms that deprive users from   compelling possibilities if these barriers came down. Who in your organization can break these barriers down so that we can tap into the technological potential to advance business innovation.

In this week's episode, Bill, Stephanie, Ryan, Leonard, Rob, David, and Marc jump on to Web3 to celebrate IoT Coffee Talk's 150th episode!! We delve into the topics of digital twin. Does it need to be a 3D model and exists in an immersive industrial metaverse or can it be simple and easy? Is ChatGPT and generative AI applications going to help us, or dilute us, our talent, and and our worth? Most importantly, will the folks at Google ever get the free massage services back again? If they do, will they have to go back to the office? More importantly, can IoT and digital twins save the commercial real estate market?

In this week's episode, Tom, Leonard, Steve, Rob, and Marc jump on to Web3 to celebrate IoT Coffee Talk's almost Everclear IoT episode!! This rant is all over the place but centers on the topics of Steve keep saying engineering and business schools should make IoT Coffee Talk mandatory parts of their curricula, why everyone thinks Apple stinks but they don't and that pisses everyone off, what IoT can learn from the fragmentation issues in the Windows and Android ecosystems, and why developers don't matter as much as we might think. I know! It's about starting with the customer experience, which does not mean starting with the customer. Mind-bending stuff!

In this week's episode, Stephanie, Bill, Leonard, Steve, Rob, and Marc jump on to Web3 to determine if we can have the best of both worlds? Can we find balance between our digital world and reality? If we virtualize the world can we trust the real world? What happens when we put more faith and trust in technology than we do in ourselves? Very trippy discussion, but we get into the hopes and the fears of our future that will be heavily influenced and impacted by AI. When virtual overrides our believes and value, how do we trust each other, our institutions, our realities?

In this week's episode, Leonard, Steve, Rob, David, and Marc jump on to Web3 to talk about Amazon's Sidewalk and their announcement of a pretty huge coverage map. How did they get there and do consumers know what their community contributions are going to be used for? Is it a "free" network or is it? What about the matter of transparency? Did Amazon figure out what Helium couldn't? Would Marc crushed Leonard like a watermelon if he was sitting right next to him like he was at dinner in Barcelona after IoT Stars? Find out in this riveting episode of IoT Coffee Talk!

This week, Stephanie, Leonard, Bill, and Marc jump into the IoT Coffee Talk Siloverse with special guest, Jan Pingel, co-founder of Industry 4.0 Club on Clubhouse to talk about what would happen if Metaverse and ChatGPT had a baby. What would you get? Would you get Tay 2.0 or the opposite of what Metaverse represents, digital (or quantum) utopia. Find out and get some nuggets on what you probably can and can't do with the latest hype that is generative AI.

Steve, Andreea, and Leonard jump on the Zoom siloverse for the last episode of 2022 to talk about entrepreneurship, the fear and the challenges of going out on your own, and what it takes to discover a career and life beyond corporate, and getting the origin of Auld Lang Syne compleeeeetely wrong. We also find ourselves talking about forecasts again and how blindly believing them has proven time and time again to be detrimental to company, industry, person, and beyond. It seems like a persistent theme that won't go away. With a reset of interest rates globally to sightly high be "normal" levels, nonsense no longer has a market. So, what do you do if you are caught in the middle going into 2023. Clarity is the key and a focus on value.

Steve, Marc, David, Rob, and Leonard jump on the Zoom siloverse for our THIRD Holiday episode! Amazing! Join us for some 5G catastrophic Christmas caroling that tests the limits of the Interwebs and light speed. We hit on a lot of interesting topics such as great Holiday comedy from the legends of SNL (Eddie Murphy (Trading Places) and Adam Sandler (The Hanukkah Song), Marc goes through the Tio legend and methodology and even does a demo, not once but twice! Will there be 6G? We opine on the future of events. Will MWC and CES be successes or duds? We also share our takes from 2022 and share some recommendations for 2023.

Happy 2023, IoT Coffee Talk listeners! This week we are taping from Las Vegas. Rob and Leonard are attending CES 2023. This week Andreea, Bill, Rob, and Leonard, and David hop on to the siloverse to talk about resolutions, hopes, and aspirations for the new year. We talk about soul searches, job searches, self-discovery, and the broken promise of 5G and other hype technologies and hypes that came and died at CES in the past. We contemplate how digital transformation is hard and so easy to say, but you can actually do it wrong. 

Welcome to the Year of the Rabbit! We hope you have good fortune and have the luck of the bunny in 2023!

This week a massive team (Stephanie, Tom, David, Marc, Andreea, Rob, and Leonard) jump on the siloverse joined by first-timer, Eric Simone, CEO of ClearBlade, to talk about mostly agriculture and how it was big at CES 2023, how it is increasingly capturing the techno spotlight, and how it is increasingly essential in saving farming for humanity and environment. We also touch on privacy and why we are told it doesn't matter by folks who benefit from it not mattering, and the possibility of private farms becoming a thing because processed foods just don't taste as good as produce and stuff in Europe.

This week, we had our largest group (Bill, Steve, Stephanie, Tom, David, Marc, Andreea, Rob, and Leonard) jump on the siloverse to talk about how rural connectivity has largely been all talk and little to speak about. With new spectrum and new options for connecting things out in the rural areas and the agricultural plains of the US and other regions, the economics don't seem to work out. The biggest issue - backhaul. Do we need to connect to the cloud or will edge computing provide new options for bringing connected intelligence to the remote and rural. It's another thought-bending one from IoT Coffee Talk! Check it out!

This week, Rob, Leonard, Ryan, and David jump on the siloverse to talk about why RFPs are typically pretty lame, why buyers should make sure they have their act together when they put that RFP together lest they expose how little they know about what they want, to channel or not to channel, and are we over partnering to the point it means nothing? Will you be my channel partner. Will you be mine? Will you be mine?  It's another thought-bending one from IoT Coffee Talk! Check it out!

Marc, Bill, Rob, and Leonard jump on the Zoom siloverse to talk about Rob's Waterworld strategy for saving humanity, or at least a few of us, as global warming threatens to shift populations as regions of our planet either get swallowed up by the oceans, or become perennial fire and drought zones. While billions if not trillions will be spent on traveling to Mars to create an option for humanity, what about the next frontier right on our planet? The oceans? We also talk about industry events and getting the most out of them. Why we need details (not high level diagrams) to make things happen. Why Industry 4.0 has lost its relevance. The Magic Quadrant, does it work for Industrial IoT? The gang considers creating an IoT Coffee Quadrant. Are you in?

This week, we have a special guest, Afzal Mangal of T-Mobile and IoT Creators, joining us to talk about his book, "How Telcos Destroy Their Future Relevance". It's a great book. Straight talk and some sobering perspective on why telcos do what they do and don't do what we think they might be able to do.

It's a great debate with Rob taking on Marc Pous' role as Chief "I disagree with you" Officer! It's pandemonium on Zoom as the gallery debates topics from the role of ecosystems to the stifling influence of standards in innovation. It gets hot up in here!

Oh, and Rob does some amazing air drums! It's simply ridiculous!

This week, Andreea, Tom, Rob, Bill, and Leonard talk about the B Company and the idea of doing good. Are you doing good? Is your company doing good? What is your purpose? 

We the make another foray into a discussion about Bill's ridiculously awesome smart, connected him. Really weird, later on we talk about the relevance of PERA and how age old frameworks are still valid. Cloud does not break the wheel. Bill's house is proof. 

We wrap things up with a long discussion about security, quality code development, and the need to test and QA. We need to call it DevTestOps because we tend to defund the testing and QA in IT.

This week, Andreea, Steve, Leonard, Bill, and Rob engaged in a fragmented but enthralling discussion about a bunch of random stuff such as the Hurricane Ian tragedy, going from chip shortage to the impending chip glut, annoying behaviors of Norton endpoint protection, the Edge Computing World, and Big Ass Fans. Yes, that is literally the name of the company that makes the massive fans that you see at Costcos to cool the warehouses.

We talk about what you get when you mix IoT with AI. It's not what you think. We talk about the pitfalls of techno religious fanaticism and how it can limit thinking and innovation. Lots of good stuff.

This week, Rob, Stephanie, and Marc rap about the great workforce shortage. Can we automate our way out of the shortage? Can we create digital twins to replace them? Will you be hiring a digital twin to fill roles that you can't fill?

Rob gives a lecture on the jobs-to-be-done and defining roles and tasks for a digital twin that learns human behavior and decision making? 

Sure, it's a bit of a mind bender. Is a digital twin a simulation? Your head will hurt by the time you get to the end of the episode. It is awesome!

Steve, Bill, Rob, David, and ANOTHER STEVE! jump on the metaverse to swap about IoT stuff. Amazing discussion on thought-provoking questions such as, is IoT a hyperscaler gig? Did they get it all wrong (yes, they did. Rob and Leonard said so and friggin' predicted os back in 2017 at IoT Solutions World Congress)? The gang talks about the need to train a network of SIs that can deliver end to end. Where are they? How do we scale IoT solution delivery?

This week, Leonard and Rob report from Mobile World Congress in Las Vegas. This is the first year that the North American version of GSMA's marquee event is taking place in Sin City in collaboration with CTIA. It's an event that is still recovering from the big pandemic hit that forced the event organizers to regroup and reinvent. 

You won't want to miss this event where Leonard gets totally lost and has to trek much further than he had to if he had bother to find out where MWCLA 2022 was taking place before he left his hotel. Pretty ridiculous. On the way, the Dynamic IoT Duo carry on about what is big in IoT and 5G. Is it all about ecosystems? Is it all about open? Find out in this episode!

This week, David, Leonard, Rob, Bill, and Marc talk about IoT in space. We share our thoughts on the big announcement last week which was the T-Mobile + SpaceX technology partnership to provide cellular-based text services from satellites to your smartphone. Project Artemis' big day was scrubbed on Monday. Did IoT and digital twins not quite work out to make it the first successful launch of this great new program to get humans back on the moon? We talk about how this new excitement about communications in space could create another opportunity for IoT to deliver on some global hopes and promises of old.

This week, Leonard, Rob, Bill, and Marc jump on a chat about a lot of stuff. We kick things off reminiscing about the 90s when Grunge just became a thing at a time when spandex and teased massive hair and heavy metal guitar ruled the day. Then came Britney Spears who ruined everything. We also chat about smart homes and why they don't matter despite Matter and it's inability to Thread the needle despite support from massive players like Apple. Speaking of Apple, we talk about the big announcement that was going to happen today with a lot of gossip and hype about some kind of satellite service, faster and better iPhone, new Apple Watch, and AirPods, and more, and the drama that is Arm suing Qualcomm. Of course, we were right about Apple, they had deal with Globalstar. It's real, not a rumor.

In this installment, we talk about open source software. Is it more secure or just more transparent? Who do you trust? The closed software guys or the open software guys? What about SBOM (software bill of materials)? Can that help in preventing things like Log4J which opens a massive security hole in our digital universe? Get into the fray. It's techno religious war time!

Steve, Andreea, and Leonard jump on the Zoom siloverse for the last episode of 2022 to talk about entrepreneurship, the fear and the challenges of going out on your own, and what it takes to discover a career and life beyond corporate, and getting the origin of Auld Lang Syne compleeeeetely wrong. We also find ourselves talking about forecasts again and how blindly believing them has proven time and time again to be detrimental to company, industry, person, and beyond. It seems like a persistent theme that won't go away. With a reset of interest rates globally to sightly high be "normal" levels, nonsense no longer has a market. So, what do you do if you are caught in the middle going into 2023. Clarity is the key and a focus on value.
