$BB Re: Advisory council members invited to join. "These include AWS, GEICO, Azure, Qualcomm, Deloitte, Netflix, Prime Video, Amazon Alexa, Solifi and several others". Logically they are probably all on side with only the possible exceptions of Azure and Netflix and Qualcomm and Deloitte. Prime and Alexa are part of Amazon and AWS is joint partner on IVY, so they will be included by default. Would Netflix not want to be included if Prime Video is? MSFT has already partnered with BlackBerry on 365 Suite and IVY is agnostic. MSFT would obviously want part of the cloud business, hence why wouldn't they want to be involved? Would seem counter to their best interest not to be involved. QUALCOMM and Deloitte already partnered with BB on other fronts as well and wouldn't male sense for them not to involved. Also there is chance the author of this article may have run it by BB before publishing. BB not the promotional types.

$BB Latest Get In: The Connected Vehicle Podcast: “There’s more time spent in standardizing those data sources and formats and then exposing them to third party developers than actually building the application itself. What’s happening with IVY is, it’s the only initiative where there’s an element of standardization all of the sensors, across all of the types of car makers. Since BlackBerry provides the foundational components, it has a really good chance of pretty much defining the flavor of the system, safety and security. We frankly think BlackBerry’s best days are ahead of it.”
