“The ROI and regulations are what everybody is focused on. And for good reason, because if  that regulation isn’t where somebody wants or needs it to be, then that’s going to stop their adoption or moving forward with the technology. And if the ROI isn’t there, likewise it can just fall flat on so many levels.”
