73: NB-IoT (The Cowboy Cut)

Welcome to IoT Coffee Talk #73 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 installment, we discuss NB-IoT. Why is it only making it in China and why are device makers in the West complaining that there is no profit in the 3GPP standard for LPWAN? We also discuss the challenges of getting connectivity outside our city centers.
