\"\" India-born Sandeep Chennakeshu<\/a>, who is popularly referred to as Dr Fix, is a key man behind ailing Canadian device maker BlackBerry<\/a>’s restructuring. The once-iconic company is now banking on the QNX<\/a> platform and is aiming to garner $500 million revenue from the software business by FY2016.
\n
\nIn an interaction with ETTelecom's Muntazir Abbas, Chennakeshu, who is driving the Blackberry Technology Solutions<\/a> (BTS) portfolio, shares the company’s innovation around licensing business. Edited excerpts:<\/em>
\n
\nIs it challenging to be a new technology leader for a company like BlackBerry which has seen many ups and downs in recent past?<\/strong>
\n
\nI came to BlackBerry in a very interesting way. I used to have my own business. I was a consultant and after being many years in corporate America. I grew up in Bangalore and I completed my engineering in Bangalore. I wanted to go back to engineering and so I went to Canada and did my masters and then I did my PhD and then I joined General Electric corporate research. It was the place where Edison started his lamp.
\n
\nI went ahead and built a team and later that team was acquired by Ericsson and then Ericsson made me the head of their research and then I slowly went up their ladder and became their CTO, I was the only foreign CTO in its history of 137 years. Then, I began managing phones and turned up to be the CTO of Sony Ericsson too.
\n
\nThen later I returned to America and then I had the mind to do stuff myself and so I went off and entered the multinational restructuring business. I found broken companies and gave their board a blue print on how to fix it and then they would employ me saying I knew so much. I used the existing people of the company, fixed the company and handed over the new keys to the new CEO and go and fix another company. It was a great job. I was a fixer and that is how BlackBerry got hold of me.
\n
So, they were raising money and asked me to evaluate it. I met John Chen<\/a> and I helped him restructure BlackBerry for six months and then he held me back.
\n
\nWhen did you start BlackBerry’s restructuring? How much time have you spent in BlackBerry?<\/strong>
\n
\nI have been in BlackBerry since August of last year as an employee, but before that I started in November of 2013. I began analysing BlackBerry in the September of 2013. I spent about three months analysing it, then there were six months of restructuring, then I took over this new division called BlackBerry Technology Solutions.
\n
\nYour business is separate from that of a device vertical. What is your portfolio?<\/strong>
\n
It is separate. My business is completely independent of the devices<\/a>. So, we sell to devices, all our technology is going to the device, they are one customer to me and I also sell them to others like Ford and GM.
\n
\nWe are into infotainment, telematics and digital instruments cluster. Our software goes in many cars because we are safety certified and the probability of it failing is very low.
\n
\nWe have a little more than 1100 customers, across segments— automotive, networking, railway, medical and industrial automation. We are very wide spread.
\n
\nYou are also banking on your cryptography<\/a> segment. What are its features?<\/strong>
\n
The business is Certicom<\/a> which is called as cryptography solutions specialist. We have a particular technology called the elliptical curve cryptography technology.
\n
\nThe advantage is as we use short keys, it is 30-70 fold more efficient and we call it the next generation. It has been adopted by many governments, so we sell tool kits, which is a software library which helps use design and maintain security. We also sell certificates that are used to establish authentication.
\n
\nWe have sold almost 80 million certificates till today. It is a growing business. We also protect chips. So, when a chip is manufactured we inject special keys into it to protect them. Till today, we have protected almost 450 million chips.
\n
\nYou have a patents portfolio that you license. How many patents do you have now?<\/strong>
\n
\nYes, of course we have our patents portfolio that we are monetizing. So, that is the fifth business. We have QNX, Certicom which is cryptography, RF antenna tuning, IoT and then we have basically the patent portfolio that we licence. We have 40,000 patents which we license. So, this is kind of a new business. All of our five businesses are licensing business which is high margin business.
\n
\nDo you think it’s time when Internet of Things (IoT) makes its presence in the Indian market?<\/strong>
\n
\nAbsolutely, I believe that there are many things we can do. I think one is the ability to diagnose and monitor white goods. For example, one can minimise sending people out for servicing and do it over the air. As almost every house has a Wi-Fi. So as long as your client can talk to the Wi-Fi, you can do your software updates and it will be a really good application. And the second area I think is the asset tracking because India is a country where a lot of goods are flowing in different corridors and I think this could be really efficient way to track and optimise goods flow because it helps you with efficiency. These are only applications.
\n
\nOur IoT system can be used across many applications, we can use them in hospitals, and we can use it for a much wide variety of applications. It is completely scalable and its footprint is worldwide, secure, private and scalable. Today, we are focusing on these two because of the business focal point.
\n
\nWhat are the opportunities you see in India?<\/strong>
\n
\nIndia is a big country. It has a population of what 1.3 billion. It is going to grow, every industrial nation has a good potential and so does India. India has 240 million Internet users and has good scope for business to grow and maintain in such manner. I have come to India with the potential to understand if these businesses would partner me. I am a technologist and I like inventing things, I want to know if there is a solution I can provide from all the way back in America, but for that I need partners who would tailor it to suit the needs. So, one of my purposes for the visit is to understand who would be interested.\n\n<\/body>","next_sibling":[{"msid":49177009,"title":"Smartphone in the service of the watch","entity_type":"ARTICLE","link":"\/news\/devices\/smartphone-in-the-service-of-the-watch\/49177009","category_name":null,"category_name_seo":"devices"}],"related_content":[],"msid":49179885,"entity_type":"ARTICLE","title":"John Chen retained me after BlackBerry restructuring: Sandeep Chennakeshu","synopsis":"India-born Sandeep Chennakeshu, who is popularly referred to as Dr Fix, is a key man behind ailing Canadian device maker BlackBerry\u2019s restructuring.","titleseo":"devices\/john-chen-retained-me-after-blackberry-restructuring-sandeep-chennakeshu","status":"ACTIVE","authors":[{"author_name":"Muntazir Abbas","author_link":"\/author\/479234376\/muntazir-abbas","author_image":"https:\/\/etimg.etb2bimg.com\/authorthumb\/479234376.cms?width=100&height=100&hostid=268","author_additional":{"thumbsize":true,"msid":479234376,"author_name":"Muntazir Abbas","author_seo_name":"muntazir-abbas","designation":"Editor","agency":false}}],"analytics":{"comments":0,"views":221,"shares":0,"engagementtimems":896000},"Alttitle":{"minfo":""},"artag":"ETTelecom","artdate":"2015-10-01 13:19:14","lastupd":"2015-10-05 14:37:08","breadcrumbTags":["Devices","BlackBerry","interview","cryptography","John Chen","QNX","Sandeep Chennakeshu","BlackBerry Technology Solutions","Certicom"],"secinfo":{"seolocation":"devices\/john-chen-retained-me-after-blackberry-restructuring-sandeep-chennakeshu"}}" data-authors="[" muntazir abbas"]" data-category-name="Devices" data-category_id="12" data-date="2015-10-01" data-index="article_1">

India-bornSandeep Chennakeshu通常被称为修复博士,是加拿大背后的关键人境况不佳的设备制造商黑莓的重组。once-iconic公司现在指望QNX平台和目标是获得5亿美元的收入来自FY2016软件业务。

在交互ETTelecom Muntazir阿巴乐动娱乐招聘斯,Chennakeshu,谁开车黑莓技术解决方案(BTS)组合,股份公司的创新授权业务。编辑摘录:

这是挑战的新技术领袖这样的公司黑莓在最近看到很多起伏?

我来到黑莓在一个非常有趣的方式。我有我自己的生意。我是一个顾问,多年后在美国企业。我成长在班加罗尔和我完成工程在班加罗尔。我想回到工程所以我去加拿大,我的主人,然后我做我的博士,然后我加入通用电气公司研究。这是爱迪生的地方开始他的灯。

我以后继续和建立一个团队,这个团队被爱立信收购爱立信然后让我研究的负责人,然后我慢慢上升阶梯,成为他们的首席技术官,我是唯一的外国首席技术官在其137年的历史。然后,我开始管理手机和出现的CTO索尼爱立信。

后来我回到美国,然后我有头脑的东西所以我离开和进入跨国重组业务。我发现破公司,给他们的董事会蓝图如何修复它,然后他们会雇佣我说我知道。我用公司的现有的人、固定公司和新钥匙交给新任首席执行官,修复另一家公司。这是一个伟大的工作。我是一个调停者,这就是黑莓抓住我。

所以,他们筹集资金,让我评估。我遇到了约翰陈和我帮他调整黑莓6个月,然后他抱着我回来。

你什么时候开始黑莓的重组?黑莓手机你花了多少时间?

我已经在去年8月以来黑莓作为一个员工,但在此之前我开始在2013年11月。2013年9月我开始分析黑莓。我花了大约三个月分析它,然后有6个月的重组,然后我接手这个新部门称为黑莓技术解决方案。

你的业务是分开的设备垂直。你的投资组合是什么?

它是分开的。我的生意是完全独立的设备。所以,我们卖设备,我们所有的技术设备,他们对我来说是一个客户我也卖给其他类似福特和通用汽车。

我们去娱乐,远程信息处理和数字集群工具。我们的软件会在许多汽车,因为我们是安全认证和它失败的概率很低。

我们有一个超过1100的客户,在段——汽车、网络、铁路、医疗和工业自动化。我们非常广泛。

你还指望你密码学段。它的特点是什么?

业务是Certicom这是称为加密解决方案专家。我们有一个特定的技术称为椭圆曲线密码学技术。

我们使用短键的优点是,它是30 - 70倍更有效,我们称之为下一代。它已经被许多国家采用,所以我们销售工具包,它是一种软件图书馆帮助使用设计和维护安全。我们也出售用于建立认证证书。

直到今天我们已经售出近8000万证书。这是一个日益增长的业务。我们也保护芯片。所以,当芯片制造我们注入特殊键保护他们。直到今天,我们有近4.5亿芯片的保护。

你有一个许可的专利组合。现在你有多少专利吗?

是的,当然,我们有我们的专利组合,我们是货币化。所以,这是第五业务。QNX, Certicom密码学,射频天线调谐,物联网,然后我们基本专利许可证。我们有40000项专利许可证。所以,这是一种新业务。我们所有的五个企业授权业务的高利润率业务。

你认为是时候当物联网(物联网)使其在印度市场?

当然,我相信有很多事情我们可以做。我认为一个是诊断和监测白色家电的能力。例如,一个可以减少发送人服务和在空气中。几乎每一个房子都有wi - fi。只要你的客户可以跟wi - fi,你可以做你的软件更新和这将是一个很好的应用。,第二我认为是资产跟踪,因为印度是一个国家,很多商品流入不同的走廊,我认为这可能是真正有效的方法来跟踪和优化产品流,因为它可以帮助你与效率。这些只是应用程序。

我们的物联网系统在许多应用程序中可以使用,我们可以使用它们在医院,我们可以用它来更广泛的应用。它完全可伸缩的和它的足迹是世界性的,安全的,私人和可伸缩的。今天,我们都在关注这两个因为业务的焦点。

你在印度看到的机会是什么?

印度是一个大国。它有13亿的人口。它将成长,每一个工业国家都有很好的潜力,印度也是如此。印度有2.4亿互联网用户,具有良好的范围为业务增长和维护的方式。我来印度的潜力能够理解我如果这些业务伙伴。我是一名技术员,我喜欢发明东西,我想知道如果有一个解决方案可以提供从所有的方式回到美国,但我需要伴侣会裁缝来满足需求。所以,我对此次访问的目的之一是了解谁会感兴趣。
