Blockchain, AI and IoT: a pact for innovation

The convergence of blockchain, IoT and Artificial Intelligence is behind the next step not only on the tech side but also on the business side. Francesco Corea on Forbes explains that the industry has indeed evolved from merely creating products, to create networks of products (namely, Internet of Things), to eventually creating Intelligent networks of products (I-IoT).
The new class of smart products will be (and already are, to some extent) able to monitor, control, optimize, and automatize processes and products with an accuracy previously not imaginable.
This convergence is however not accidental, but rather inevitable: AI needs data, IoT needs intelligence and insights, and both need security and transparent marketplaces.
The convergence will affect several sectors: healthcare, energy, manufacturing, home environment, robotics, drones, supply chain and logistics.
