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.

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

(R.I.P.

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.

Thanks for joining us. Sit back with a cup of Joe and enjoy the morning banter.In this week's episode, Leonard and David jump into the metaverse to talk about the real attempt by the Federal government to bridge the digital divide from Mountain Connect 2023, the largest conference on rural broadband in the U.S. Leonard provides an update on the BEAD program and the process that municipalities, vendors, and service providers need to go through to get that funding. David and Leonard talk about the technologies that are available to enable the many options that BEAD recipients have to deploy broadband to each and every American when trenching fiber gets extremely costly.Thanks for listening to us!

Welcome to IoT Coffee Talk #169 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.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.!Thanks for listening to 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 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 listening to us! Watch episodes at http://iotcoffeetalk.com/.

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!

Welcome to IoT Coffee Talk #165 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, 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?Thanks for listening to us! Watch episodes at http://iotcoffeetalk.com/.

Thanks for joining us. Sit back with a cup of Joe and enjoy the morning banter.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.Thanks for listening to us! Watch episodes at http://iotcoffeetalk.com/.
