Apple Watch comes replete with\u00a0iOS 8, which is its biggest release yet<\/a>, along with a new\u00a0Health<\/a>\u00a0app to help users manage their health and \ufb01tness data. For developers, Apple has added\u00a0HealthKit<\/a>, which will enable them to create great health and fitness apps to work seamlessly together. Through these channels, along with its overhaul of the user experience of smartwatches, Apple is single-handedly building a consumer oriented health and fitness ecosystem which may well spawn a larger health revolution. On top of all this,\u00a0WatchKit<\/a>\u00a0is the new toolkit for Apple Watch that will allow developers to start\u00a0writing cool apps<\/a>\u00a0such as alerts and notifications, including ways to sync Apple Watch with other gadgets. Developers are already jumping on the bandwagon to write apps for the new Watch. Apple's robust and expansive ecosystem of tools and resources, not to mention the Watch's significantly smaller form factor, will lead to major changes (and challenges!) in how mobile apps are designed and developed. Businesses cannot afford to overlook these emerging and disruptive trends especially since Apple Watch is sure to hugely impact the way consumers interact with their brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With more users come more data endpoints. More data endpoints means more Internet of Things. And as the Internet of Things explodes and expands, this will mean more Apple Watches sold!\u00a0 The reciprocal nature between Apple Watch and the growth of Internet of Things can\u2019t be stressed enough here.

2014 marked the emergence of the smartwatch market in full form. Major players like Google, LG, and Samsung introduced devices, following the path of the popular\u00a0Pebble Watch<\/a>\u00a0release in 2013. Despite some sluggishness at the beginning, the industry is taking off and looks to get a major impetus from the Apple Watch release. Along with these consumer changes, the wearable technologies market in general is also growing leaps and bounds. A fresh new report\u00a0out says the Global Connected Wearable Device market will grow at a CAGR of 54.11 percent over the period 2013-2018. The major driver of this trend is the \u201cconvergence\u201d of user-friendly services (telecom, media, IT, and infotainment) onto a single device that\u2019s easily accessible on a mobile platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now after much speculation about the exact release date, Apple Watch is officially set to start shipping to consumers in\u00a0April<\/a>. One thing that organizations have learned, or should learn from experience, is not to underestimate Apple and its ability to transform whole industries. We've seen it happen too many times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are a number of good reasons why businesses of all stripes need to start thinking seriously about how to get ready for the Apple Watch era. Here are three major ones:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Smartwatches and Wearables are here for Good<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

2014 marked the emergence of the smartwatch market in full form. Major players like Google, LG, and Samsung introduced devices, following the path of the popular\u00a0Pebble Watch<\/a>\u00a0release in 2013. Despite some sluggishness at the beginning, the industry is taking off and looks to get a major impetus from the Apple Watch release. Along with these consumer changes, the wearable technologies market in general is also growing leaps and bounds. A fresh new report\u00a0out says the Global Connected Wearable Device market will grow at a CAGR of 54.11 percent over the period 2013-2018. The major driver of this trend is the \u201cconvergence\u201d of user-friendly services (telecom, media, IT, and infotainment) onto a single device that\u2019s easily accessible on a mobile platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Apple Watch Will Reify the Internet of Things<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We've all heard the hype surrounding the Internet of Things. Apple Watch is slated to become a new expression of this emerging and disruptive industry. As\u00a0one writer<\/a>\u00a0has well stated, \u201cWith the Apple Watch, Apple rejuvenates the watch as both a watch and a new kind of personal computing device.\u201d If everything goes as Apple planned, the Watch will become a record selling item within months of its release. With more users come more data endpoints. More data endpoints means more Internet of Things. And as the Internet of Things explodes and expands, this will mean more Apple Watches sold!\u00a0 The reciprocal nature between Apple Watch and the growth of Internet of Things can\u2019t be stressed enough here. By revolutionizing the user experience of smartwatches, Apple is creating a major \u201cnew dimension,\u201d or endpoint, for the Internet of Things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

3. Apple Watch Will Transform the Future of App Development<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Apple Watch comes replete with\u00a0iOS 8, which is its biggest release yet<\/a>, along with a new\u00a0Health<\/a>\u00a0app to help users manage their health and \ufb01tness data. For developers, Apple has added\u00a0HealthKit<\/a>, which will enable them to create great health and fitness apps to work seamlessly together. Through these channels, along with its overhaul of the user experience of smartwatches, Apple is single-handedly building a consumer oriented health and fitness ecosystem which may well spawn a larger health revolution. On top of all this,\u00a0WatchKit<\/a>\u00a0is the new toolkit for Apple Watch that will allow developers to start\u00a0writing cool apps<\/a>\u00a0such as alerts and notifications, including ways to sync Apple Watch with other gadgets. Developers are already jumping on the bandwagon to write apps for the new Watch. Apple's robust and expansive ecosystem of tools and resources, not to mention the Watch's significantly smaller form factor, will lead to major changes (and challenges!) in how mobile apps are designed and developed.

Since its announcement in September, Apple Watch<\/a> has probably become one of the most highly anticipated tech gadgets in recent times, perhaps even more than the original iPhone.

2. Apple Watch Will Reify the Internet of Things<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We've all heard the hype surrounding the Internet of Things. Apple Watch is slated to become a new expression of this emerging and disruptive industry.

With more users come more data endpoints. More data endpoints means more Internet of Things. And as the Internet of Things explodes and expands, this will mean more Apple Watches sold!\u00a0 The reciprocal nature between Apple Watch and the growth of Internet of Things can\u2019t be stressed enough here. By revolutionizing the user experience of smartwatches, Apple is creating a major \u201cnew dimension,\u201d or endpoint, for the Internet of Things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple Watch comes replete with\u00a0iOS 8, which is its biggest release yet<\/a>, along with a new\u00a0Health<\/a>\u00a0app to help users manage their health and \ufb01tness data. For developers, Apple has added\u00a0HealthKit<\/a>, which will enable them to create great health and fitness apps to work seamlessly together. Through these channels, along with its overhaul of the user experience of smartwatches, Apple is single-handedly building a consumer oriented health and fitness ecosystem which may well spawn a larger health revolution. On top of all this,\u00a0WatchKit<\/a>\u00a0is the new toolkit for Apple Watch that will allow developers to start\u00a0writing cool apps<\/a>\u00a0such as alerts and notifications, including ways to sync Apple Watch with other gadgets. Developers are already jumping on the bandwagon to write apps for the new Watch. Apple's robust and expansive ecosystem of tools and resources, not to mention the Watch's significantly smaller form factor, will lead to major changes (and challenges!) in how mobile apps are designed and developed. Businesses cannot afford to overlook these emerging and disruptive trends especially since Apple Watch is sure to hugely impact the way consumers interact with their brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before we spill the news on the price, remember that you are buying a ticket to the future. A seat on Richard Branson\u2019s Virgin Galactic is way more than the $900 price of entry to \u201cSilicon Valley Legends.\u201d For another perspective, sometimes a plane ticket from New York to San Francisco costs $900. The organization that holds the tour, Silicon Valley Innovation Center, also leads a regular Friday Tech Tour. On that, participants are immersed in a world of artificial intelligence, virtual reality, drones, robots, and 3-D printing for $475.

Since its announcement in September, Apple Watch<\/a> has probably become one of the most highly anticipated tech gadgets in recent times, perhaps even more than the original iPhone.

The future is here. But maybe you\u2019re just not feeling it. Do you, for example, still close your own car doors manually? The one-day \u201cSilicon Valley Legends\u201d tour will put that tired routine to bed, at least for an hour at Tesla<\/strong>, where the Model X<\/em> will be demoed. The doors open when the fob-carrying you approaches the car. Say what? The X\u2019s dash also sports a bio-weapon defense button, which isn\u2019t nearly as scary as it sounds. It filters the air within the cabin to a pristine medical-grade purity \u2026 no matter what\u2019s happening outside, as Tesla<\/strong> states online. All right, that might be a little scary. A Googler will continue the tour of the future into the campus known as Googleplex<\/strong>. Later, you\u2019ll meet Sofia whose full name is Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy. In layman-of-the-past\u2019s terms, a former United Airlines plane has been outfitted with a 20-ton, 100-foot telescope. It flies 45,000-feet above capturing clear images of black holes and shadows of Neptune\u2019s moon (no selfies sent back yet, as far as we know).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple Watch comes replete with\u00a0iOS 8, which is its biggest release yet<\/a>, along with a new\u00a0Health<\/a>\u00a0app to help users manage their health and \ufb01tness data. For developers, Apple has added\u00a0HealthKit<\/a>, which will enable them to create great health and fitness apps to work seamlessly together. Through these channels, along with its overhaul of the user experience of smartwatches, Apple is single-handedly building a consumer oriented health and fitness ecosystem which may well spawn a larger health revolution. On top of all this,\u00a0WatchKit<\/a>\u00a0is the new toolkit for Apple Watch that will allow developers to start\u00a0writing cool apps<\/a>\u00a0such as alerts and notifications, including ways to sync Apple Watch with other gadgets. Developers are already jumping on the bandwagon to write apps for the new Watch. Apple's robust and expansive ecosystem of tools and resources, not to mention the Watch's significantly smaller form factor, will lead to major changes (and challenges!) in how mobile apps are designed and developed. Businesses cannot afford to overlook these emerging and disruptive trends especially since Apple Watch is sure to hugely impact the way consumers interact with their brands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The future is here. But maybe you\u2019re just not feeling it. Do you, for example, still close your own car doors manually? The one-day \u201cSilicon Valley Legends\u201d tour will put that tired routine to bed, at least for an hour at Tesla<\/strong>, where the Model X<\/em> will be demoed. The doors open when the fob-carrying you approaches the car. Say what? The X\u2019s dash also sports a bio-weapon defense button, which isn\u2019t nearly as scary as it sounds. It filters the air within the cabin to a pristine medical-grade purity \u2026 no matter what\u2019s happening outside, as Tesla<\/strong> states online. All right, that might be a little scary. A Googler will continue the tour of the future into the campus known as Googleplex<\/strong>. Later, you\u2019ll meet Sofia whose full name is Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy. In layman-of-the-past\u2019s terms, a former United Airlines plane has been outfitted with a 20-ton, 100-foot telescope. It flies 45,000-feet above capturing clear images of black holes and shadows of Neptune\u2019s moon (no selfies sent back yet, as far as we know).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before we spill the news on the price, remember that you are buying a ticket to the future. A seat on Richard Branson\u2019s Virgin Galactic is way more than the $900 price of entry to \u201cSilicon Valley Legends.\u201d For another perspective, sometimes a plane ticket from New York to San Francisco costs $900. The organization that holds the tour, Silicon Valley Innovation Center, also leads a regular Friday Tech Tour. On that, participants are immersed in a world of artificial intelligence, virtual reality, drones, robots, and 3-D printing for $475. After the tour, you might report finding the world you wake-up in on the verge of something big.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since its announcement in September, Apple Watch<\/a> has probably become one of the most highly anticipated tech gadgets in recent times, perhaps even more than the original iPhone. In the last 7 years or so we\u2019ve seen why Apple is the global leader in technology innovation. The MacIntosh, iPod, and iPhone each revolutionized how people interacted with technology through the mouse, through the click-wheel, and through multi-touch . . . so the Cupertino, CA-based tech giant has given consumers very high expectations for the smartwatch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now after much speculation about the exact release date, Apple Watch is officially set to start shipping to consumers in\u00a0April<\/a>. One thing that organizations have learned, or should learn from experience, is not to underestimate Apple and its ability to transform whole industries. We've seen it happen too many times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are a number of good reasons why businesses of all stripes need to start thinking seriously about how to get ready for the Apple Watch era. Here are three major ones:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Smartwatches and Wearables are here for Good<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

2014 marked the emergence of the smartwatch market in full form. Major players like Google, LG, and Samsung introduced devices, following the path of the popular\u00a0Pebble Watch<\/a>\u00a0release in 2013. Despite some sluggishness at the beginning, the industry is taking off and looks to get a major impetus from the Apple Watch release. Along with these consumer changes, the wearable technologies market in general is also growing leaps and bounds. A fresh new report\u00a0out says the Global Connected Wearable Device market will grow at a CAGR of 54.11 percent over the period 2013-2018. The major driver of this trend is the \u201cconvergence\u201d of user-friendly services (telecom, media, IT, and infotainment) onto a single device that\u2019s easily accessible on a mobile platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Apple Watch Will Reify the Internet of Things<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We've all heard the hype surrounding the Internet of Things. Apple Watch is slated to become a new expression of this emerging and disruptive industry. As\u00a0one writer<\/a>\u00a0has well stated, \u201cWith the Apple Watch, Apple rejuvenates the watch as both a watch and a new kind of personal computing device.\u201d If everything goes as Apple planned, the Watch will become a record selling item within months of its release. With more users come more data endpoints. More data endpoints means more Internet of Things. And as the Internet of Things explodes and expands, this will mean more Apple Watches sold!\u00a0 The reciprocal nature between Apple Watch and the growth of Internet of Things can\u2019t be stressed enough here. By revolutionizing the user experience of smartwatches, Apple is creating a major \u201cnew dimension,\u201d or endpoint, for the Internet of Things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
