15. Business Model
“Companies that alter their business
model in response to change and
opportunity are more likely to achieve a
sustainable competitive advantage.
The reason is simple: it is much more
difficult for a competitor to copy a
business model than it is to replicate
products or services,”
Steven Phan, Asia-Pacific managing
partner at accounting firm EY.

16. Impacts & Change of Business Model
IoT: Change the way the world works
CEO Jeff Immelt: "The Internet has changed the way we consume
information and talk with each other, but now it can do more.
By connecting intelligent machines to each other and ultimately to
people, and by combining software and big data analytics,
we can push the boundaries of physical and material sciences to
change the way the world works." (from ZDNet webpage)
IoT create new business model:
More objects are becoming embedded with sensors and gaining the
ability to communicate. The resulting information networks
promise to create new business models, improve business
processes, and reduce costs and risks. (Mckinsey)
