EP 162 - How do you scale IoT globally and affordably

This week, we interviewed Ivo Rook, Chief Operating Officer and President of 1NCE. 1NCE is a leading provider of connectivity and software for IoT at a global flat rate. They offer fast, secure, and reliable cellular connectivity and services in more than 110 countries.

In this episode, we discussed trends in IoT adoption and the telecommunications industry that enabled the 1NCE business model to grow rapidly in recent years. We also explored the non-technical challenges related to scaling IoT, like business case economics, servicing cost, supply chain, and the overall need for simplicity.

 Key Questions: 

• What technological shifts are driving business demand for global IoT connectivity services today? 

• What is the cost structure behind the total cost of customer deployment solutions for IoT device roaming?

• What are IoT device manufacturer, operator and user priorities and requirements for roaming services? 

• How are telco operators partnering to deliver services for IoT devices globally?
