Driving Innovation
What is the Technology Strategy Board?
• We are the UK’s Innovation Agency• A national body set up in 2007 to invest in
business innovation• We work across business, universities and
government• We mostly come from business
– 130 people with over 1700 years of business experience
• We have a budget of over £300m/year
Driving Innovation
Context: The Digital programme
• Mission:
to help innovative businesses unlock the economic potential of digital technology, by identifying and addressing systemic challenges and resolving tensions between people, processes and technology.
Driving Innovation
Overview of our IoT programme
• A £5m managed investment • Focus on the enablers of and barriers to the
ecosystem of applications and services of the Internet of Things
• Special Interest Group– Started on August 1st – https://ktn.innovateuk.org/web/internet-of-things
• Internet of Things Convergence– Now: £500k for preparatory studies – 2nd half 2012: £4m for a demonstrator activity
Driving Innovation
Strategic pillars of our current investment
Increased access to data
Enablingapplication & services
More harmonized access to data

Health warning!!
• Not a presentation on governance• Taking a strategic perspective from the
standpoint of a national innovation agency...• ....informed by 100s of discussions with
business• We are currently running a programme
– Will bring up many angles to the governance of IoT– We will share with the community
Driving Innovation
What is the IoT ...

Driving Innovation
The multiple perspectives of the IoT
• 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
How can Governance take into account all these perspectives and let them flourish?
Driving Innovation
Consultation: Broad recurring themes
•Applications and services are key to prove value
•How to prove business models/demand
• Open data, data value chains, data markets• Open, end to end standards• Interoperability• Lower barriers to innovation and app/services development• Disintermediation between the infrastructures and apps/services • Enables secondary markets (app & services)• Apps and services that can scale, critical mass• Market creation for SMEs• Trust, privacy, resilience• Micropayments • Enables crossing organizational
and sector boundaries
Driving Innovation
Consultation: key technical topics• Data value chains from the “things” trough application/services to end user• Services, service design, including information flows• Disincentives (including liabilities), incentives, costs, and benefits analysis for organization to
make more data available • Business models for data, services and applications• People-centred design and value cases for users• Legal, regulatory and ethical considerations, including liabilities • Privacy, security, trust • Monetization and billing mechanisms• Integration between data sets to generate more value• Service level agreements between parties in the data/service value chain• Incentives to invest further in infrastructure (nodes, networks) based on information flows• Interoperability at the data and services layer• Coping with large quantities of data • Data/Information brokerage solutions, local hubs, gateways, including cloud based • Data usage, rights, provenance • Disintermediation between the infrastructure and the application/services developers• ..........

Lots to be proven ....
How far can/should governance go if we don’t understand how the market and value creation will unfold

Where would governance be most effective? Where is it needed? Where is it damaging?

Driving Innovation
IoT: It is still early!!
• Businesses feel there is no dominant player in IoT– Opportunities to compete, grow, etc.
• Natural textbook symptoms of early markets: fragmentation, lack of standards, bespoke solutions, etc.
• Who is the audience for governance discussions?
Governance activities should take into account that the market is not yet well developed, especially in apps and services.
Driving Innovation
Benkler’s layers of governance• Physical layer • Logical layer• Content layer
Where does governance actions fit best? Can we learn lessons from the evolution of Internet governance?

7 Application
• Short development cycle• Fast moving applications• Fast rate of adoption• Low CAPEX short design
cycles• Abstracted from underlying
infrastructure
• Long development cycle• Slow moving standards• CAPEX intensive• Global co-ordination and
economies of scale – challenges & opportunities
• Large investment / high stakes• Spectrum usage changes

Device-centric vs service centric:Beyond the RFID lens
Much of the governance discussions have been heavily influenced by the RFID community – a relatively mature market
The evolution of IoT governance should take a much broader perspective.
What are the known unknowns?
Driving Innovation
Services and apps pull the market
Enabling an ecosystem of apps and services that can scale is key. What type of governance will stimulate that, and what could get in the way?
Driving Innovation
Tales of two philosophies: Big IT systems vs bottom up, decentralized
Two opposing views very visible.How does governance differ in these opposing scenarios? What should it be like to cater for both?
Driving Innovation
Governance not same as architecture!
• Taking about “IoT architecture” at the same time of governance might be confusing– How many “platforms” has the EU funded?– 10s of competing industry “architectures”
• Should there be competition at the architecture/platform level?– You can have governance without specifying
architectures
• Anecdote from the consultation .....

Driving Innovation
Governance that works for people
• Scenario for the IoT are still immature• User centred design one of the key themes• Convergence means that IoT might be up-close-
and personal (vs for Engineers in the past)• Governance has to be fit for purpose for
customers and users
Driving Innovation
It is fit for purpose?
• Liability and accountabilities– Surprisingly strong element across sectors– Best effort vs SLAs?
• Security, Trust, Resilience, authentication, provenance.– Seen as key for the markets to develop
• IoT coming from industrial, scientific background, moving closer to people problem much bigger and critical.
Governance is key here. But BEWARE, it has proven hard for the Internet too!!
Driving Innovation
The path to standards & controls
At several events we run people get fired up when mentioning words such as standards, governance, controls.
Need to sell the benefit, see the upside, not the process or the fears.
Driving Innovation
Governance for an IoT ecosystem ....
• Open data, data value chains, data markets• Open, end to end standards• Interoperability• Lower barriers to innovation and app/services development• Disintermediation between the infrastructures and apps/services • Enables secondary markets (app & services)• Apps and services that can scale, critical mass• Market creation for SMEs• Trust, privacy, resilience• Micropayments • Enables crossing organizational and sector boundaries
