Who are the main competitors vying for a slice of the multi-trillion-dollar pie? Mobile device manufacturers, industry vertical enterprises, tech giants...? Leveraging experience in scaling connectivity, managing millions of devices and extensive billing What are the specific IT and technology requirements for CSPs to become platform businesses? From Pipe to Platform Stakes, Strategies and Monetization Capitalising on existing and emerging physical and digital infrastructure for enhanced revenue opportunities Building a platform to cater to all stakeholders: customers, suppliers, partners, developers Establishing where the value of the platform lies, what and how to charge How to effectively monetize both the platform and the data generated ESTABLISHING TRUST Monetization, Management and Trust Assessing the drivers and barriers to IoE growth and monetization MMT overview and origins of TM Forum s IoE program focus Identifying tools and strategies to create success for all stakeholders What role can you play in shaping the future ecosystem and marketplace? Craig Bachmann, Senior Director IoE Program, TM Forum

3 The Value of Trust and Privacy Management in an Open, Interconnected Environment Examining brand trustworthiness as a competitive differentiator and opportunities to monetize privacy How to manage trust across a complex ecosystem of partners delivering IoE services? Empowering the consumer to manage their digital identity and privacy At look at evolving national and supra-national standards and regulations initiatives Practical Implementation of Security Measures in IoE Devices and Enablers Leveraging analytics, AI and machine learning to safeguard valuable data The pressure to deliver applications quickly without compromising security and performance Implementing protective measures at all levels device, network, and cloud What particular security challenges does implementing IoE in legacy devices present? PANEL: Blockchain and Securing Digital Transactions The vital role of privacy and trust in the future of IoE growth and monetization Examining the nature and use cases behind Digital Object Identifiers and Legal Entity Identifiers How can these be leveraged to minimize risk and ensure traceability across the IoE? How will blockchain technology impact IoE systems, sensors and data? Blockchain evolution: rom cryptocurrencies to identity and contracts to future applications Navigating the technical hurdles of applying blockchain in the IoE context Thursday 7 December 2017 IoE STRATEGY AND MONETIZATION Securing a Place in the Platform Economy How to create a future-proof IoE platform: flexibility, scalability, cost efficiency Building, managing, maintaining and evolving the platform to cater to various needs and changing needs The role of APIs in enabling an open platform economy Leveraging the cloud to enhance interoperability and openness The role, advantages and drawbacks of open source platforms in IoE Building on a Strong Base How the CSPs Can Successfully Monetize IoE How are enterprises monetizing IoE and what can operators learn from them? How to monetize existing capabilities and assets How to build new capabilities and assets investment, skills and resource requirements Examining the as-a-service model and implementing a transaction-based monetization system Quality of Service in the IoE Sontext How does IoE QoS vary from industry to industry?
