IoT Strategy Roadmap Ovidiu Vermesan, SINTEF ROAD2CPS Strategy Roadmap Workshop, 15 November, 2016 Brussels, Belgium
IoT-EPI Program The IoT Platforms Initiative (IoT-EPI) program includes the research and innovation consortia that are working together to deliver an IoT extended into a web of platforms for connected devices and objects. The IoT platforms support smart environments, businesses, services and persons with dynamic and adaptive configuration capabilities. The goal is to overcome the fragmentation of vertically-oriented closed systems, architectures and application areas and move towards open systems and platforms that support multiple applications.
IoT-EPI Program Projects Supporting IoT activities on innovation Building an IoT Open Ecosystem ecosystems for Connected Smart Objects The business engine for IoT projects iot-epi.eu Interoperability of heterogeneous Symbiosis of smart objects IoT platforms across IoT environments Open virtual neighbourhood platform for connecting IoT infrastructures and smart objects Adoptive gateways for diverse multiple environments Connect mass-market products with the digital Bridging the interoperability gap of the IoT world across multiple application sectors

IoT and the Circular Economy Reshaping the economy by rapid increase in the number of intelligent assets that creates significant value. Pairing digital revolution with circular economy principles transform the economy s relationship to materials and finite resources, thus unlocking additional value and generating positive outcomes. Systemic change perspective, where IoT becomes the new, virtualised infrastructure that governs assets use and movements along the value chain. Pervasive connectivity rolled out at scale has the power to redefine value generation, supporting economies bypass heavy upfront investments and material-intensive solutions.
IoT and the Circular Economy Holistic product and service development Invisible complexity and seamless integration Clear value proposition Engagement with the knowledge ecosystem available via the IoT. Monitoring and discovery of new products and services unveiled by interconnectivity, data access, and resultant learning. Digital IoT cognitive era - the emergence of hybrid decision-making IoT cognitive systems and the users cooperate to discover things, information, services and synthesise solutions surpassing human decision-making capabilities for solving complex system problems. Redefined collaborative mechanisms between technology and the framework within which it operates. IoT solutions combine innovation, regulation, standardisation creativity in order to manage the complex questions raised by data circulation and capture, compatibility of systems and intellectual property.
