Episode 31: Does Matter matter?

This week’s episode examines several interesting standards relevant to connectivity and IoT. First are Matter and Thread, which collectively promise to drive the smart home market. Additionally Matt looks at the 5G Network Data Analytics Function (NWDAF) and the Lightweight M2M (LwM2M) device management protocol. 

Episode 30: Cloud connectors and who’s hot in IoT?

In this week’s episode Matt looks at the emerging requirement in IoT for cloud connetors, as well as the associated topic of IoT SAFE. He also digs into findings from a survey last year on who are the most (and least) favoured vendors in IoT. Finally he shares some of the findings from Transforma Insights' work on connected cars.

Episode 29: Predicting AI

In this week’s episode Matt looks at a new set of research from Transforma Insights on forecasting the Artificial Intelligence market, considers the value and potential of 5G RedCap, a new variant on 5G aimed specifically at IoT, and examines the growing need for smart metering given the current energy crisis.

Episode 28: What is constrained IoT?

This week's episode looks at the concept of constrained IoT, delves into some recent headlines concerning particularly M&A in the IoT space, and a look at recent developments in embedded SIM.

Episode 27: To spin or not to spin?

On the agenda in this episode is whether it makes sense for communications service providers to spin out their IoT business units, a look at benchmarking of digital transformation service providers, and a little more on Transforma Insights' recent work on sustainability.

Episode 26: IoT isn’t all about the data

In this week's episode, Matt discusses several reasons why it's a fallacy that IoT is "all about the data". He also looks further at the recent Transforma Insights work done on sustainability, with a particular focus on water consumption (very timely!), as well as some thoughts on how the metaverse might be used by enterprise.

Episode 25: Hyperscale IoT connectivity and LEO satellites

In this week's episode, Matt discusses the requirement for Communications Service Providers to pivot to being hyperscale IoT connectivity providers and how best to do it, plus our assessment of the prospects for LEO satellites to deliver IoT and more on the work we did recently on using IoT and other disruptive technologies to tackle sustainability. 

Episode 24: The Clean Dozen

We're back after a year's hiatus, but with lots of great research to talk about. Matt shares details of the 'Clean Dozen' solution areas that enterprises need to focus on to meet their sustainability objectives as well as looking at some recent news (including how great Transforma Insights is!). 

Episode 23: They may be virtual but the change is real

Matt dives into the obsessions that IoT companies have with value chains and their position in them, plus a look at the increasingly vibrant IoT MVNO world. And a little bit on Everynet's new US LoRaWAN network. 

Episode 22: What an analyst loves to see

This week's episode looks at Nokia's new product focused on the emerging opportunity for data exchanges, a deep dive into the changing landscape for IoT connectivity and a look at the opportunity associated with robotic automation.
