Podcast: Guest Speaker on JC Giraldo’s Business Podcast — What is IoT?
I spoke to J.C.Giraldo at his Business Podcast for small business about my favorite topic — IoT.
JC wanted this to cover what is IoT and where it IoT today but led the questions to cover the state of IoT and evolving business models for small businesses.
You can listen to the podcast here.
Key topics covered
- What is biometrics and how wearables help track our health
- Is IoT a hype or companies buiding IoT just not calling it IoT
