Cisco Showcases How the UK Is Harnessing the Internet of Everything in 2014 - Seite 3

With the UK poised to -- once again -- become a hub for manufacturing, there's a growing necessity for manufacturers to put the same efficiency into the manufacturing process as they do the sales, and seek to make disposable items the renewables of the future.

"UK organisations, in both the public and private sectors, need to take a closer look at their current business models if they want to take advantage of the opportunities generated by the IoE," said Ian Foddering, chief technology officer, Cisco UKI. "Three factors are key to tapping into these opportunities effectively. Firstly, an ambition and willingness to be open-minded and realise how the IoE applies to the business context. Second, to hire and invest in the right skills to manage connections, and thirdly to explore what new partnerships will allow new ground to be broken for everyone involved to benefit."
