The Internet of Things (IoT) encompasses an accumulation of network-based devices. IoT involves extending internet connectivity beyond standard devices. Embedded with technology, these devices can communicate and interact over the internet. They can be remotely monitored and controlled.
IoT devices run on network connections like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and Near-Field Communication (NFC). IoT devices include smart appliances, e.g. webcams, printers, routers, wearables such as Apple Watches and Fitbits, refrigerators, security systems, and speakers (including Amazon Echo and Google Home).
This Internet of Things presentation offers a comprehensive summary of the 3 Strategic Models (along with examples) that organizations offering IoT products and services embrace to succeed in the industry. These Strategic Models include:
1. Enablers – Enablers are the developers and executers of the underlying technology. Enablers are technology-centric organizations—e.g. Cisco, Google, HP, IBM, and Intel—that develop and uphold key IoT infrastructure essential for Engagers to develop and offer individualized connected services.
2. Engagers – Engagers are those who shape, invent, incorporate, and offer delivery capabilities of IoT services to others. Engagers link the IoT with the market by employing endpoints, hubs, platforms, and other service offerings. They create services for consumers and businesses.
3. Enhancers – Enhancers are those who add value to what engagers offer by developing their own creative services. Enhancers deliver enhanced, integrated, value-added IoT services by revamping and repackaging Engagers' offerings.
These presentation slides also deliberate upon the 6 key strategic considerations that organizations looking to invest in IoT must contemplate. Additional topics touched upon include the IoT Technology Stack and IoT Digital Enterprise Ecosystem.
This Internet of Things PowerPoint presentation also includes some slide templates depicting the 3 IoT Strategic Models, IoT Technology Stack, and IoT strategic considerations for you to use in your own business presentations.
The presentation also provides insights into the IoT Technology Stack, detailing the layers of technology products and services that support IoT solutions. Organizations can leverage these templates to enhance their strategic planning and execution in the IoT domain.

This PPT slide outlines the Internet of Things (IoT) technology stack, emphasizing the necessity for organizations to integrate 5 key types of technology offerings to effectively leverage IoT. The structure of the slide categorizes these offerings into distinct levels, starting from basic components to more advanced services.
The first category, "End points," likely refers to the devices that collect data or interact with users. This foundational layer is essential as it forms the basis of any IoT solution. Next, "Simple Hubs" probably represent basic connectivity solutions that aggregate data from multiple end points. These hubs are crucial for initial data management and communication.
Moving up, "Integrating Hubs" suggest a more sophisticated level of data processing and integration, enabling seamless interaction between various devices and systems. This is where organizations can start to see more value from their IoT investments. The fourth category, "Network and Cloud Services," indicates the infrastructure required for data storage, processing, and analytics, which are vital for scaling IoT solutions. Finally, "Enhanced Services" likely encompass advanced functionalities, such as predictive analytics and machine learning, which can drive deeper insights and automation.
The accompanying note highlights that as organizations progress through these layers, the complexity and interconnectivity of IoT devices increase. This progression is critical for businesses aiming to fully realize the potential of IoT technologies. Understanding this stack is essential for decision-makers looking to implement or enhance their IoT strategies.
This PPT slide outlines the IoT technology stack, emphasizing the strategic choices businesses face when developing IoT offerings. It highlights that many organizations are involved in providing Network and Cloud Services, with some creating Endpoints and others focusing on Hub Integration services. The text suggests that the variety of options within the IoT stack can lead to a loss of focus, potentially allowing competitors with more defined IoT capabilities to gain an edge.
The slide categorizes 3 strategic models: Enablers, Engagers, and Enhancers. Enablers are described as providers of the foundational technologies and applications necessary for integrated IoT offerings. They target core technology services, such as Endpoints or Cloud solutions. Engagers, on the other hand, focus on delivering products and services that connect the IoT to customers, effectively bridging the gap between technology and user experience. Enhancers are positioned as those who add value by integrating and augmenting the services offered by Engagers, thereby reaching customers in innovative ways.
The mention of an "Ecosystem" and "Digital Enterprise" suggests a broader context where these models operate, indicating that collaboration among various stakeholders is essential for success. The term "Embedder" introduces the idea that IoT creates new operational paradigms, affecting both functional and cross-functional business processes within organizations. This slide serves as a critical guide for businesses looking to navigate the complexities of IoT strategy, urging them to select a model that aligns with their goals to effectively generate value.
This PPT slide provides a comprehensive overview of the Internet of Things (IoT) and its strategic models, emphasizing the vast potential of network-based devices. It highlights that IoT devices operate through various network connections, such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, and includes examples like smart appliances and wearables. The text suggests that the integration of these devices can significantly transform the technological landscape, offering limitless opportunities for innovation and business growth.
The slide categorizes the opportunities within IoT into 3 distinct strategic models: Enablers, Engagers, and Enhancers. Enablers are identified as the developers and executors of the underlying technology, laying the foundational infrastructure necessary for IoT functionality. Engagers are those who shape and enhance the delivery capabilities of IoT services, indicating a more interactive role in the ecosystem. Finally, Enhancers are described as entities that add value to the offerings of Engagers by creating their own unique services, thereby fostering a more dynamic and creative environment.
This structured approach allows potential customers to grasp the multifaceted nature of IoT and its applications. Understanding these categories can guide strategic decisions and investments in IoT initiatives. The slide effectively communicates that engaging with IoT requires a clear understanding of these roles, which could lead to more informed and strategic business choices in leveraging IoT technologies.
This PPT slide titled "IoT Strategic Considerations – Overview" outlines essential factors organizations must consider when entering the Internet of Things (IoT) market. It emphasizes the need for a structured approach to leverage the opportunities presented by IoT while acknowledging the inherent challenges.
Key challenges highlighted include fluctuating customer demands, evolving hardware and software standards, and the integration of numerous endpoints and intelligent devices. Data management, security, and customer expectations regarding privacy are also critical concerns. These factors necessitate a thorough evaluation before diving into IoT initiatives.
The slide presents a circular framework with 6 key considerations for organizations. First, establishing clear objectives is crucial for guiding efforts in the IoT space. Next, understanding current and potential market changes due to IoT is vital for strategic alignment. Focusing on customer engagement is another critical point, as it directly influences the success of IoT offerings.
Assessing the existing portfolio of products and services helps identify gaps and opportunities for innovation. Deploying fundamental IoT value propositions ensures that organizations can effectively communicate the benefits of their offerings. Lastly, identifying organizational capabilities and deficiencies allows for targeted improvements and resource allocation.
