Transcript of Connected Cars: Assessing the Impact
Three communities to benefit from connected car revolutioni-mobility.org
#1- AUTO INDUSTRY

#2 Developers
Developer Community
• Livio was acquired by Ford in a sub 11 million dollar deal. While it was already working with GM to bring in seamless connectivity from smartphone to in car dash.
The move has been defined as revolutionary as Ford bids to create standardization across automobile players
Industry supports
• “Customers want seamless in-car connectivity,” says Ford’s CTO Paul Mascarenas. But the biggest barrier to that goal is that every automakers wants its own branded, locked-in solution. That’s not a problem for monoliths like Pandora that can develop for multiple auto platforms, but smaller companies and individual developers just don’t have the resources to create one app across a dozen automaker systems. It kills innovation and is a massive hurdle for what’s shaping out to be the next great mobility platform.
#3 Advertisers
Real Time Advertising
• What if while passing by Star bucks, you can be digitally sent over coupons for coffee?
• What if a fashion retail outlet is able to push notify you about its sales as you pass by the stores?
• What if the child sitting at the back is notified about the Disney store in the vicinity?
Data revolution for advertisers
• Advertisers are looking to harness a lot of this data that rolling datacenters, the cars will be able to generate.
• Information about the demographic and behaviour of the passengers overlaid with the real time location of the car will give rise to some amazing opportunities for advertisers. Ones that you haven’t seen before
