The massive explosion computing continues…
Why?

19. 19
Power in the IoT will shift from the center to the edge
Devices will compete and trade autonomously in real-time
digital marketplaces
Connectivity and intelligence will be a means to better
products and experiences, not an end
Why?

20. 20
▪ Networking and remote
usage will become
secondary features
▪ Tomorrow’s smart
appliances will create value
by applying intelligence and
network connectivity to
improve the CORE value
proposition of the device
Make it better
Better cooking
Increased safety
Improved reliability
Greater fitness
Less mess
