As the first to occupy the Digital Industrial market category, GE stood at the forefront of a revolution to equip customers with the data, analytics, and insights needed to thrive in a digital-first world.
GE serves a primarily commercial set of customers, from small manufacturers to the world's largest industrial producers. With the rise of IoT and the industrial internet, GE recognized its opportunity to dominate an emerging market category and designed one of the first Industrial IOT platforms—Predix™. But first, they needed to convey digital's value to analog industries that don't readily embrace change.
1P helped launch GE into the software category through a strategic blend of captivating stories and experiences supported by credible outcomes and teachable moments, for real customers, under real-world circumstances.
1P crafted two visionary videos telling the story of the industrial internet, and PredixTM, helping GE’s global customer audience understand the value of this emerging category.

Minds & Machines is a two day event where First Person® brought the Predix™ software to life through a series of keynotes and satellite sessions presented by 15 Executives across 8 Breakouts.
1P helped demonstrate new user experiences through choreographed simulations of live interactions between the executives on stage and expert operators from Gas, Wind and Nuclear power plants across the country.
To support live customer engagements, 1P visualized relatable stories about the industrial internet as told by GE’s C-suite.
Chief Marketing Officer, Niloy Sanyal, shared a story about a recent business trip to draw parallels between consumer and industrial apps to help explain Edge to Cloud computing.
Chief Commercial Officer, Dick Ayres, shared a story about an icy storm hitting the North East that knocks out power to help explain how Asset Performance Management software can reduce unplanned outages.
