CHALLENGES FOR STARTUPS CHALLENGES FOR CORPORATES Q&AOPPORTUNITIESINTRODUCTION

• Sell a use case and not technical buzzwords („AI“). People buy a solution to a problem, they don’t buy IoT.

• Adapt your language to the industry: „control room“ vs. „dashboard“.

• Try to sell high - the worst thing that can happen is that they forward you to somebody down the hierarchy.

• Platform-second: try to start with a narrow use case.

CHALLENGES FOR STARTUPS CHALLENGES FOR CORPORATES Q&AOPPORTUNITIESINTRODUCTION
