The new digital divide is not about access to IT. It’s about how the technology is used.
We are cramming more and more data into our clouds, and we’re using more and more AI to analyze it.
We’ve created a fantastic engine.
But without a steering wheel, we’ll go nowhere. We need an actionable experience on the front end to drive the data toward the desired direction.
Sean Ginevan shows us how.
He’s the Head of Global Strategy & Market Enablement at Android Enterprise. His work with Android and their enterprise partners gives him real insight into how businesses are using data, and how they’re sometimes missing it.
Sean joined us on our rethink: IT podcast to show us how to connect data with experience and enable true digital transformation.

Will the move from 4G to 5G accelerate the demise of the corporate network? Russ Mohr, Field Engineering Director at MobileIron, thinks it absolutely will.
Russ joined us on our rethink: IT podcast and shared how 5G latency reduction will have a profound impact on edge computing, data architectures, and application services. Yes — 5G is about a lot more than faster-loading mobile websites. (The latency reduction alone allows a high-speed race car driver to use VR to navigate a speedway using a 5G network.)
Before his six-year stint at MobileIron, Russ worked with Research in Motion, Lucent, and Net2Phone.
Tune in to learn how 5G is affecting the entire IT landscape.

Have we gone too far down the rabbit hole of digital tech? Without our (digital) health, we don’t have anything. Work continually invades our personal lives, and without the ability to switch work off, we never truly become unglued from our digital lives.
We’re digitally unhealthy.When Sean Ginevan visited Japan, he noticed something. Leaders there were very concerned about digital well-being and the overall balance of work and life in their employees.
Sean works at Android Enterprise as the Head of Global Strategy & Market Enablement. He’s helping implement new features that create a more digitally healthy workplace and culture.
He came on our rethink: IT podcast and let us in on how Android and the digital landscape is evolving with tools like “work profiles” to enhance our digital well-being.

We hear the blockchain hype. We see blockchain implementations like crypto-currency start to reshape the financial industry. But should blockchain matter to IT? Suresh Batchu, CTO and Co-Founder of MobileIron, describes the disruptive potential of blockchain on enterprise identity.
-
IT administrators face a huge problem when dealing with Android across their organization: fragmentation. It’s what keeps Kurt Westphal up at night. He’s part of the AppConfig technical team, and they’re redefining Android. On this episode, we hear about their partnership with Google and how they’ve created OEMConfig, a standardization across the Android ecosystem that will allow OEMs to push upgrades and applications straight to devices, without having to integrate with the EMM.

SIM cards are widely used across cellular networks, and they require tedious steps to activating new devices, changing phone numbers, or changing networks.
These issues are compounded in company-owned technology — each time a device changes networks or phone numbers, the SIM must be reprovisioned or replaced altogether.
But a new solution is emerging, called eSIM. With this new process, the SIM is no longer stored on a removable hardware, but it is actually embedded within the device itself, and it can be reprovisioned remotely.
How far out is this solution? Some devices manufacturers, such as Google and Apple, are already putting eSIM within their new devices, according to Suresh Batchu, CTO & co-founder at MobileIron.
He came on this episode of rethink:IT to share how eSIM technology will impact enterprise IT and end-user efficiency.

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times” is the opening line in Charles Dickens’ “A Tale of Two Cities” … and it is also an appropriate description of the opportunities and challenges that face IT today. IT leaders have a chance to tap into the incredible innovation spurred by mobile and cloud computing but, in doing so, they have to rethink the fundamentals of their application, security, and organizational strategies.
The rethink: IT podcast challenges traditional thinking on information technology. It provides practical and provocative perspectives on the future of IT.
Ojas Rege, Chief Strategy Officer at MobileIron, has kept his fingers on the pulse of what’s happening in the technology market for over 30 years. This is why he created rethink: IT, a podcast for CIOs who want to deliver impact in a rapidly changing technology landscape.
