It turns out that big mobile network players can learn a lot from the airline industry. These two seemingly disparate industries actually have more in common than might appear at first glance.

It is one of several topics discussed on our 40th special edition of IoT Leaders, which brings together Eseye’s two Founders Ian Marsden and Paul Marshall to discuss the global IoT connectivity challenges they set out to solve when they started Eseye.

The show explores:

• Eseye’s founding story from Zigbee to SGP.32 and beyond, including top a-ha moments from the past 16 years
• Why achieving 80% connectivity uptime kills the IoT business case
• The unsustainability of roaming as a quick fix for connectivity, and why there’s a need for a new financial model for roaming
• What mobile network operators (MNOs) can learn from the airline industry, and the Star Alliance in particular
• Why SGP.32 will be a big feature for 2024

Tune in to hear how Eseye tackled the challenges surrounding global connectivity long before it became an industry buzzword, and what the journey looks like today.
