Competing Visions for the Future
Post-PC Era@MITEFCMB#MITForum
October 9, 2012
Competing Visions• Two seemingly competing visions for the future• Friendly smack-down (or so I was promised)• Tonight = “The Voice” for the most powerful idea• Who will win?• You decide!
Lora Kratchounova, Scratch Marketing + Media
• Twitter: @ScratchMM• Principal at Scratch M+M• MIT Enterprise Forum Vice Chair, Innovation and Startup Committee• Inspired by what the MIT Enterprise Forum has to offer• Inspired by compelling visions for the future
The Future is Mobile• The future is going to be mobile• Mobile phones/tablets (mostly by Apple) =
the dominant way we interact with the world around us
• The mobile phone/tablet becomes our universal “remote control”
The Mobile Revolution• Through Q1 2012, just 2 years after Apple
shipped the initial iPad, Apple has sold 67 million of them – It took Apple 24 years to sell that many Macs– Over 3 years for that many iPhones – 5 years for that many iPods
• 1.2 billion smartphones over the next 5 years, about 40 % of all handset shipments (ABIResearch)
How Mobile Are We?
How Mobile Are We?

The Future is Enchanted Objects
• The things we live with are getting smarter • Imagine a chair that plays your Pandora
music• A kitchen cabinet that instantly connects
you to a loved one• A trash can that reorders household
essentials via Amazon…

Adam’s Final Words• Mobile interfaces handle the things you want to
think about. Objects/Systems handle the rest.• Sensors (especially phone) are systems’ portals
into you• Increasingly engineered human experiences for
good & harm• Sensors/Systems measure health & well-being• Increasing multiple-bottom-line companies

Current state of mobile• Mobile phone subs are 5x landline subs and passed landline subscriptions 10
years ago and in the U.S. mobile broadband is ubiquitous at 64%
• Tablet installations are 30% and exploding in the U.S. while mobile internet use has passed wired internet use in some emerging countries
• Compared to online, mobile advertising is significantly more effective. When mediums are combined ‘mobile only’ holds its own and in some cases outperforms.
Market opportunityMobile media consumption is growing exponentially.Ad spend is disproportionately low compared to other media.

Market challengesAudience-based buying is an unsolved problem
•Buyers: Struggle to reach targeted audiences at scale•Sellers: Struggle to understand and monetize audiences
Why hasn’t this been solved? 1) Mobile is different
•User identification•Apps - new media type•More data - location, device, behavior
Existing ad platforms and technology are ineffective in mobile
2) Difficult and Complex problem•Principles•Data collection• Implementation
Mobile advertising - the next two years
• Mobile Consumer• Consume more services via mobile and

• Advertisers• Shift to real-time 1to1 marketing - cross screen• Data sources• Desired action/conversion
• Media• Content personalization and programming -
cross screen• Monetization strategies
1. Scalable performance
2. Creative
Innovation
Ambient intelligence & advertising
• Is there a role for advertising in ambient intelligence and if yes, what solutions are most likely to work?
• More sensors/data, more personalized and targeted communication
• Rich, continuous services delivered from cross-environment
• How will consumer data be managed and distributed?
• Which payment methods will be most effective?
