To celebrate the summer, we are delighted to share our bonus podcast episode!
Mark Wharton talks to Ali Nicholl about the inception of IOTICS and how data really can change the world.

Mark reflects on his 10 years at IOTICS and the vision of virtualized versions of producers and consumers of data, securely interoperating across and between organisations seeking to make informed decisions based on real data from their ecosystem, leading to better outcomes for citizens, communities, and the planet.
