Smart Connected Products

We live in a smart, connected world. The number of devices connected to the Internet recently surpassed the total number of humans on the planet, and we’re accelerating on our way to an » Internet of Things «.

To capture the value creation opportunity these » smart connected products « represent, CEOs must assess their company’s strategy as it relates to everything from product design and factory production to sourcing, sales and service. In a one-day workshop with Professor Michael E. Porter (Harvard Business School), we examined needs and opportunities.
