WHAT IS AN
ECOSYTEM?
![Page 4: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

I will take one particular angle (that I like)
throughout the presentation …
….but there are others!
![Page 5: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
A way to look at it:Platforms as the foundation of ecosystems“Industry platforms are technological building blocks (that can be technologies, products, or services) that act as a foundation on top of which an array of firms, organized in a set of interdependent firms (sometimes called an industry ‘‘ecosystem’’), develop a set of inter-related products, technologies and services” (Gawer, 2009)

![Page 6: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Where do platforms emerge?
Common features (Gawer 2009):
• Complex technological systems
• Fast evolution of technology
• Importance of interoperability and integration
• Require collaboration among several firms

Sounds familiar?
![Page 7: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Ecosystems as two-sided markets
“…economic platforms having two distinct user groups that provide each other with network benefits …”
“…Products and services that bring together groups of users in two-sided networks are platforms…“

9On ecosystems, killer apps and the “A” word
[Apple] “found that the killer app wasn’t a single service, it was theecosystem. Apple introduced that ecosystem, and changed the game completely” (1)
(1) Nesta: What’s a App, 2010

10Not so simple ….
• Guess what? Lots of people trying ….
• Many companies try to build ecosystems around their (sometimes proprietary) platforms (e.g. with subsidies)
• Winner take-all dynamics and ecosystems wars (e.g. ebay: network effect hard to replicate)
• BTW, two sided-markets can have multiple platforms!!
• Or there can be one (e.g. a standard) which can spur innovation and competition on both sides (e.g. the PCI board)
• What does it mean for long tail?

SO, WHAT IS AN
IoT
ECOSYTEM?
![Page 12: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

14 … and personalities …
It’s about sensors & devices
It’s about M2M
It’s about a big IT system that controls stuff
It’s all about data value chains
It’s about new services
It’s the Internet – no such thing as IoT
It’s about the user experience
It’s about growth-opportunities
It’s about new business models

A bit to early to say: ecosystem immature
• There is no dominant platform/player in IoT• But it’s normal of early markets: fragmentation,
lack of standards, bespoke solutions, etc.
![Page 18: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO
Accelerate
AN ECOSYTEM?
![Page 19: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
First: it’s about people
![Page 20: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Second: business models and incentives are crucial
![Page 21: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21On a more technical level …. “network effect” enablers
DOING THINGS “INTERNET STYLE”
• ACCESS TO DATA
• OPEN SOURCE
• OPEN APIs
• INTEROPERABILITY
• STANDARDS
• RAPID PROTOTYPING
![Page 22: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22Computers, Internet: intrinsic interoperability problems and opportunities?
Computers!
Interoperability references in literature (Philip Parker, INSEAD)
![Page 23: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Open APIs and Interoperability:
an “Internet style”
example
![Page 24: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24Example: IFTTT tools
• Connect different web services from competing organizations
• Based on publishing metadata catalogues and APIs to data
• Simple rules: If This Then That (IFTTT)
• Example used here: Zapier
• Example of service construction: Email me every time a note is created in Evernote with the tag #cdecatapult
![Page 25: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25e.g. Zapier: select services
![Page 26: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26e.g. Zapier … select rules
![Page 27: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27e.g. Zapier: Select actions
![Page 28: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28Zapier: service directory …
![Page 29: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Imagine
something like this in the
IoT
![Page 30: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30Low moisture in my flower pot? Send me a whatsapp message and turn down heating
![Page 31: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31This “deverticalizes” …..
• Open source, APIs, access to data, interoperability help to abstracts role & enable scaling
• Hardware developers • Middleware / platforms• App developers
• Which is broadly how modern “Internet style” ecosystems develops
![Page 32: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)

Open APIs and Interoperability across platforms was
broadly the approach followed when
architecting the £6m TSB IoT Ecosystem
investment
![Page 33: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
TSB’s IoT ecosystem investment33
• Develop a network of Internet of Things clusters
• Incentivize more accessibility to IoT data
• Adoption of ‘information hubs’
• Interoperability between hubs
• Become a platform for collaboration
![Page 34: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
The Internet of Things Demonstrator34
• Results of £6m investment announced by David Willetts on 11 March 2013
• Investing in 8 IoT clusters to demonstrate ecosystems in specific application areas
• >40 organizations involved, including Intel, ARM, BT, IBM, NEUL, Cisco, EDF, Carillion, LivingPlanIT, and many SMEs
![Page 35: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

And finally a few more words about the
Connected Digital Economy
Catapult in the IoT context
![Page 37: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
The data value chain – our ‘field of play' 37
![Page 38: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
38CDE Catapult: Our #IoT angles
• Cities & communities – it’s where lots of data, verticals, people come together, in high density
• Data, data, data - #IoT will generate huge amounts of data (e.g. “cities generate more data they know what to do with”)
• Next generation infrastructure, in particular• M2M• Whitespace communication
• Connecting & supporting existing investments (e.g. from TSB, EU, RCs)
![Page 39: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
39Some open questions
• How do we all drive forward an “open” agenda for IoT• Interoperability, open source, open access• But keeping in mind sustainable business
models!• What capabilities & facilities UK’s innovators
need?• What strategic (i.e. for wider benefit) projects
does the UK need to move forward?
![Page 40: Ecosystems, Platforms and Interoperability in IoT - 22/11/2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062702/554bb03fb4c905ae618b586b/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
