173: Regulatory Uncompetitiveness

Welcome to IoT Coffee Talk #173 where we have a chat about all things IoT over a cup of coffee or two with some of the industry's leading business minds, thought leaders and technologists in a totally unscripted, organic format. Thanks for joining us. Sit back with a cup of Joe and enjoy the morning banter.

In this week's episode, Rob, Leonard, Steve, Marc, Tom and Ryan jump into the middle of Web3 to bring you the best in IoT entertainment kicking things off from Ericsson's Enterprise Industry Analyst event in Boston with the global uncompetitiveness being fostered by regulatory stunts by regions such as the EU and their Digital Markets Act targeted at so-called U.S. Big Tech. Will this help the competitiveness of European firms and industries?

Leonard and Rob talk about how we collectively have not idea what we are going to talk about every week but we know something so we are good with it. 

Steve shares he MJ moment bringing home gold in the senior world basketball championship. Congrats, Steve and Team USA!

Rob gives a beautiful rant about IoT drafting behind the smartphone craze but where are the fanboys and the lines of people waiting to get the latest IoT?

The gang explores why operators have historically scoffed at IoT and why that might not change.
