5. Overview of the landscape
location
boundaries
data
GEOFENCING
• Location: The human need to describe the context in
which they are
è
GPS technology (1970s) – allows you to pin point where you
are with accuracy
• Boundaries: People like drawing definition around
something to trigger and action or feeling. If the line is
crossed, then something happens.
• Data: provides context connecting users’ physical
presence to the virtual world around them.

7. The Data Story
• Data is one of the key ingredients of geofencing
è
Geofencing is both a data consumer and data provider
è
Crowd-sourced data is driving a new breed of applications in this
shared economy (Waze)
• Who really owns this data?
è
The consumer (person generating this data) vs. the platform
(where the data is stored and used)
è
Many data relationships create black hole of fear for both sides
è
Consumers current concern about giving up location data
• Mutually beneficial relationships are based on trust
è
Trust and transparency aligns brands to people’s values
è
Trust means consumer centricity is at the center

8. Putting Up Fences
• Why geo-fencing?
Customer-centricity: understanding the customer from their
context
è Understand when customer need overlaps with what you can
provide & when it doesn’t
è
• Consumer-centricity can lead us to protect against or
collaborate with other brands
è
Shelf space in Retail – some brands want to own as much as
possible while others partner with similar brands to gain space
è
Competitive blocking maneuvers vs. partnership
• Brand geo-conquesting or geo-collaborating
è
Should there be a similar value, and possibly marketplace, for air
or virtual space with geofencing?
