Generation-IoT: Pioneering New Paths in Technology and Business

[Note: Click here for FREE access to member-only story]

The Generation-IoT, are the people who are reshaping our future with some seriously smart solutions.

When I think about Generation-IoT, I picture these trailblazers in the IoT space, not afraid to roll up their sleeves, dive into new challenges, and whip up something innovative.

These aren’t your average techies; they’re the real deal, pushing boundaries and not just dreaming about the future — they’re building it.

Now, it’s not about how old they are or what fancy titles they have.

What sets them apart is their knack for crafting agile, flexible business solutions.

They’re the new breed of leaders, makers, thinkers, and doers who aren’t just going with the flow of change — they’re steering it, turning big challenges into even bigger opportunities.

These Generation-IoT stars get it: IoT isn’t just a one-off project or a buzzword.

It’s a continuous journey of adaptation, learning, and innovation.

They’re the champions within their organizations, driving the adoption of IoT-driven processes, shaking up old business models, and finding new ways to rake in revenue.

So, how do we fan the flames of this burgeoning generation?

We desperately need their fresh perspectives and bold ideas to keep the wheels of the industry turning.

But here’s the kicker: how do we prep them to dive headfirst into the IoT world?

First things first, we’ve got to arm them with the right tools.

They need to get the hang of the IoT middleware or platforms that bridge the gap between the hardware and software realms.

These platforms are the secret sauce, allowing our Gen-IoT whizzes to connect devices, crunch data, and even dabble in machine learning to create applications that can, well, transform the world.

Whether they choose to build their own IoT platforms or hop onto existing ones, there’s a whole universe of options out there.

With hundreds of platforms globally, the sky’s the limit for what they can create and how they can innovate.

So, here’s to the Generation-IoT — the pioneers who are not just living in the era of smart solutions but are actively shaping it.

They’re the ones who remind us that, with the right tools, vision, and a dash of daring, transforming the world isn’t just possible — it’s inevitable.

Let’s gear up, join the movement, and see where this incredible journey takes us!

Who are the Generation-IoT? Generation-IoT has been defined by Maciej Kranz in the article “Generation IoT: The Key to Business Survival in the 21st Century. Below are the traits of the Generation-IoT:

They are pioneers in IoT.
All are willing to learn and take risks and are good at building virtual teams internally and partnering externally.
You can recognize these new winners not by their age or their titles — but by their ability to build and deploy agile, flexible business solutions.
A new generation of leaders, makers, thinkers, and doers is meeting that change with flexibility and optimism and transforming it into opportunity.
These are the people who see the transformational power of IoT-driven processes, business models, and new revenue streams.
They are eager to champion and drive these opportunities in their organizations.
These people know that IoT is not just one project, one training session, one change.
They know that in order to succeed they and their organisations need to adjust and re-learn, over and over again.

But how do we encourage the growth of this new “generation”? We need them as many as possible to help us spur the whole industry. We need more fresh and innovative ideas to transform their own business or their customers. But how do we train them and get them ready to be absorb directly into organisations?

We can provide them with the necessary tools to start their journey. One of the common layer that glue the “hardware” and the “software” is the IoT middleware or the platform. The Generation-IoT must understand what are the necessary knowledge to build the electronic devices and find the necessary connectivity to the platform. But if they wish to build innovative IoT applications or using the data for the purpose of machine learning, they need to acquire this data from the IoT platform. They have a choice either to build or subscribe to any IoT platform. And currently, there are hundreds of IoT platforms worldwide as shown below.
