Cloud Realities

We are live from #MWC24 (Mobile World Congress 2024), direct from the Expo floor, with a limited series of episodes talking to leaders from across the industry on themes of the conference, as well as filling in on all of the news and gossip.

Dave, Sjoukje and Rob explore the conference theme of 'Game Changers' by talking to three technology providers who are creating new solutions to solve some of our biggest challenges:
  • Paul Armstrong, Global Sales Director, Digital Services, Schneider Electric about Smart Buildings and their critical role in helping businesses operating more sustainably and how having an 'Energy Command Centre' can help
  • Greg Pelton, CTO, Iridium and Richard Deakin, CEO, Stratospheric Platforms Ltd about the potential of non-terrestrial networks in both the stratosphere and low earth orbit to bring communications to previously hard to reach locations and space networks direct to consumer devices. They also talk about the difficulties in working in space!
