How can you leverage an Open IoT ecosystem?
#1 – Embrace Open IoT Standards
• Proprietary protocols are NOT a differentiator
• Ensure interoperability
#2 – Leverage Open-Hardware
• Developers are using open hardware
• Lower your barriers to entry
• Create your ‘Hello World’
#3 – Participate in OSS
• Build on top of open source software to lower barriers and foster innovation
• Participate in an OSS project to build a bigger pie
