Digital devices on the edge are powering an Outcome Economy and enabling a new business model that shifts the focus from selling things to selling results. A marketplace where businesses compete on their ability to deliver quantifiable results that matter to customers rather than just selling products or services, e.g. energy saved, crop yield or machine uptime. Delivering customer outcomes requires sellers to take on greater risks. Managing such risks requires automated quantification capabilities made possible by the Industrial Internet.
