An initial scouting trip to the Hub by a chemicals manufacturer identified an opportunity to collaborate. We explored together on how the industrial Internet of Things (IoT) could be leveraged to monitor certain properties and performance of their products in the field.
Some of the capabilities we demoed at the Hub, including a connected blood-testing device, gave the team confidence that the problem could be solved but the work could not proceed until the CEO visited the Hub to experience it first hand.
In a second session at the Hub — this time including the CEO — we had strategic discussions around a workbench exploring a breakthrough service offering. Ultimately, the CEO left inspired, declaring, “We are going to find a way to work together!” triggering a series of strategy efforts that led to the development and trademarking of a new capability.
