The internet of things: A business model disruptor

RSVP

Conference

London | September 10, 2019

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a disruptive technology that will have a major impact on many sectors over the next few years. For many businesses, limiting their commercial proposition to selling products alone curbs opportunities for revenue expansion and ongoing customer engagement. They will increasingly look to “servitise” their commercial proposition by offering integrated services in conjunction with products, and also use the data they gather to personalise their offering.
