S1:E6 With Joe Biron

This week on the IoT For All Podcast, we sit down with Joe Biron, Chief Technology Officer of Internet of Things (IoT) technology at PTC. In his role at PTC, Joe oversees product strategy and technical architecture of the core ThingWorx IoT platform. Through the lens of industrial IoT, Joe shares his thoughts on future-proofing IoT initiatives, creating an end-to-end industrial IoT platform, who to partner with along the way and the intersection of IoT and other bleeding-edge technologies, like AI and AR.To kick off the episode, Joe gives a little background on himself - including the acquisition that led to him joining PTC and his role in building out PTC’s IoT offering. Joe then shares some tips on future-proofing for companies building IoT solutions, advising that companies stick with mainstream technologies and standards to bring themselves faster value and “spend less time building plumbing.”Commonly discussed on the podcast, we talk to Joe about the fragmentation of the IoT industry, the necessity of partnerships and how PTC chooses its partners. We receive background on how PTC built its relationships with Microsoft and Rockwell Automation and what Joe believes makes a true, valuable partnership that moves the needle for customers.To wrap up the episode, Joe shared PTC’s experience utilizing AI and AR in IoT solutions. He talked about some of the challenges that come with the intersection of two bleeding-edge technologies and what companies need to make those implementations work seamlessly.Interested in connecting with Joe Biron?
