Painful, but true... mobile operators are still far from realizing the #IoT promise. >50% today make <1% of total revenues from IoT. This number is expected to decrease to 10% until 2020. Ambitious? Probably! Reason to believe? Unfortunately not too many....

Doesn't stop to keep continuing being a great market... #Games mrket to reach 2.3bn gamers with total spending of almost 140bn USD. Market keeps its double digit growth and mobile shows for the 10 (!!!) year in a row a double digit growth: +25% - now at >50% of total market size.

Just had a discussion on how to #sell to #corporates successfully as a #startup? My take, do everything you can to give confidence to your counterpart. Forget all the other part, any corporate collaborating with a startup is brave, so put all you have to make them less scared...
