1. A Smart “thing” is only as smart as the prescriptive value it provides to the ecosystem it belongs
What can we conclude?
2. Data is like earth, it’s the foundation of everything, and with energy and effort you might find gold, but most the time it’s just dirt
3. B2C IoT gadgets miraculously work with the gimmick model… (HOwever have a bigger sustainable strategy... OR focus on the US market...)
