SMART SESSIONS by AALTRA
IoT Business Models:
Turning connectivity in revenue.
24/06
Your connected device is live. Now what?
You built a connected product.
The firmware runs.
The data flows.
The dashboard looks great.
But how do you make money from it?
Most R&D teams can answer "What does it do?"
They struggle to answer "who pays, how much, and why would they keep paying?"
Connectivity creates potential.
A business model turns that potential into revenue.
This Smart Session is about that gap and how to close it.

Why attend?
Since 2007, Aaltra has specialised in IoT solutions with a strong focus on intuitive user experience. We understand both the technical challenges and the commercial realities of connected product development, because we've lived both sides of it.
- See past the technology hype.
60% of OEMs today monetise their connected solutions. That share is expected to grow to 66% within two years — but many are still leaving money on the table by not monetising their data at all. - Understand the revenue models — not just the two you know.
There is a full spectrum of IoT Business models. The most sophisticated models all require IoT connectivity. This session maps the landscape clearly. - Walk away with a sharper question for your next strategy meeting.
Not "should we connect our device?" but "what model makes our customers want to stay connected — and pay for it?" - Connect with others navigating the same transition.
Network with R&D managers, product leads, and startup founders who are working through the exact same questions about pricing, packaging, and proving value.
