## Summary

Phil Skipper, Head of Strategy for Vodafone Business IoT, discusses the evolution of IoT from a technology experiment to a critical operational asset for enterprises. He explains how 5G enables deterministic control applications, such as remote crane operation and haptic feedback, which were previously impossible with lower-quality connectivity. Skipper emphasizes that successful IoT adoption requires aligning technology with operational reliability and business outcomes rather than just proof-of-concepts, noting Vodafone's management of 140 million connected devices globally.
