    EP 224 - Spectrum, Payloads, and the Future of Satellite AIoT

    In this episode, we spoke with Ian Itz, Executive Director of IoT at Iridium, about how satellite connectivity is transforming the reach and resilience of IoT solutions worldwide. Ian went from building satellites for the U.S. Navy and Air Force to leading Iridium’s IoT business, where he oversees global partnerships and next-generation satellite-enabled modules. We explored how Iridium’s unique low Earth orbit (LEO) constellation is supporting both industrial and consumer applications, and how standards-based approaches such as NB-IoT are expanding the satellite IoT ecosystem. Key Insights: • Global coverage at scale: Iridium operates a 75-satellite LEO constellation, providing always-on connectivity anywhere on Earth, enabling reliable communication in maritime, aviation, heavy equipment, regulated fishing, and consumer markets. • No service sunsets: Iridium maintains backward compatibility for legacy devices, ensuring IoT deployments can operate for 10+ years without forced upgrades, while still adding new higher-throughput modules like the 9704. • Standards-based evolution: Beyond proprietary protocols, Iridium is integrating NB-IoT over its network with partners such as Nordic Semiconductor, giving customers more choice and flexibility. • Edge + AIoT synergy: By processing data at the edge and sending only essential packets via satellite, customers reduce costs and improve efficiency. AIoT adoption is accelerating this model for industrial and consumer use cases. • Security and precision: With its new PNT (Positioning, Navigation & Timing) service, Iridium enhances GPS resilience, detecting spoofing and providing verified location data, critical for sensitive IoT deployments.

    EP 223 - Smarter, Greener Cities: Richard Savoie on the Future of Sustainable Delivery

    In this episode, we spoke with Richard Savoie, Co-founder and CEO of Adiona Tech, about how AI and logistics software are accelerating the transition to smarter, greener cities. Richard shared his journey from medical devices to sustainable logistics, and how Adiona is helping global enterprises—from Coca-Cola to Australia Post—optimize fleets, cut emissions, and prepare for an electric and autonomous future. We explored why electrification requires new software, how AI digital twins reduce risk, and how sustainability can become a competitive advantage in logistics. Key Insights: • AI-powered fleet optimization: Adiona uses digital twins and AI simulations to boost vehicle utilization from ~60% toward 100%, maximizing assets while reducing costs and emissions. • Bridging electrification gaps: EVs and cargo bikes behave differently than diesel fleets, and Adiona’s software closes that gap, making sustainable adoption practical and profitable. • Scalable impact: Partnerships with PepsiCo and Australia Post demonstrate measurable reductions in emissions and logistics costs, while improving customer retention. • Sustainability as strategy: Companies are turning emissions reporting into a competitive edge, with leaders like PepsiCo using low-carbon fleets to differentiate their brand and win contracts. • Future-ready logistics: We discussed autonomous vehicles, sidewalk robots, and hybrid delivery networks that will reshape how goods move through cities.

    EP 222 - Young Innovators, Big Impact: Sahitya Senapathy’s AI Leap for Factories

    In this episode, we spoke with Sahitya Senapathy, Founder and CEO of Endeavor, about how generative AI and agentic platforms are redefining the future of manufacturing. Sahitya shared his journey from coding for FEMA to founding Endeavor from his college dorm room. We explored how Endeavor is using AI labor to tackle the chronic inefficiencies in back-office and front-office workflows, and how this technology could help revitalize U.S. manufacturing in the face of labor shortages and global competition. Key Insights: • Agentic AI for factories: Endeavor applies generative AI agents to automate medium-complexity tasks—such as supplier onboarding, sales order entry, and invoice reconciliation—that ERPs and SaaS tools still leave to humans. • AI as a workforce multiplier: Clients gain the equivalent of hundreds of 24/7 digital employees, cutting cycle times from months to days while freeing human staff for higher-value activities. • Native AI architecture: Unlike ERP add-ons or copilots, Endeavor’s platform is designed from the ground up for AI agents, delivering outcomes (e.g., documents processed, invoices reconciled) rather than seat-based licenses. • Scaling with demand: Backed by US$7 million in funding from Kraft Ventures and others, Endeavor aims to become a generation-defining enterprise software provider for manufacturing, on par with SAP and Oracle in impact. • Re-industrialization driver: As U.S. factories face a “silver tsunami” of retirements, Endeavor positions AI labor as the answer to labor shortages, helping new manufacturing plants scale without relying solely on human hiring. • Partnership approach: Sahitya emphasizes humility and collaboration—working with veteran CIOs and digital leaders to deploy AI in ways that complement their deep industry expertise.

    EP 221 - From Research to Real-World Impact: Barzan Mozafari’s Journey with Keebo.ai

    In this episode, we spoke with Barzan Mozafari, CEO and Co-founder of Keebo.ai, about how AI is transforming the economics of cloud data warehouse management. Barzan shared his journey from academic research to launching Keebo, and how his team is redefining performance optimization in enterprise data systems through AI-powered “data learning.” We explored the value of automating infrastructure decisions, and why buying—not building—is the future for data teams under pressure. Key Insights: • Data learning: Keebo introduces a new paradigm that learns from metadata to automate and accelerate database tuning and optimization. • Plug-and-play value: No code rewrites, no data migration. Setup takes just 30 minutes. • Cost-driven AI: Automatically adjusts cloud warehouse configurations in real time. • Privacy-first design: Models run solely on metadata, with no access to sensitive data or queries. • Aligned incentives: Keebo charges based on savings delivered, creating a no-risk, ROI-driven adoption model.   IoT ONE database: https://www.iotone.com/case-studies Industrial IoT Spotlight podcast is produced by Asia Growth Partners (AGP): https://asiagrowthpartners.com/
