Unveiling the 2024 Roadmap: Journey to Success with ADE

By Maria Lema


Every year, when I think about the strategy and the main business goals, I think about a theme or a topic for that year. I’d like to call 2024 “The Year of the Opportunities” — why? Because I think this year we will be able to show Cell-Stack at its full potential, not only being adopted by customers in their networks but also because we’re expanding our reach significantly. This year we have the opportunity to show how we can make a difference in this industry, and how Weaver Labs is determined to drive innovation and transformation.

By the end of this year, the industry sees that those who work with Weaver Labs are betting on innovation and are committed to technological advancement. That’s a big ask, but hey — go big or go home!

Now, to the roadmap. As you (may) know, we are part of some large innovation projects which are still running this year. We also expect to start new ones and expand others with more features or enhanced solutions. A great focus for this year is to grow the community and the team and stay more involved with the Web3 community.

Q1 — Let’s get started!👇

Commercial expansion:

We have some exciting contracts we expect to start in Q1 — these are key for Cell-Stack adoption and expansion of the user base with new infrastructure owners using Cell-Stack as their orchestration tool. We will announce them as soon as we can, so stay tuned!

Roadmap alignment:

With all these new exciting projects for 2024, we must do a realignment of our internal priorities. All these new projects will require heavy development so that means we need to go back to the Gantt charts and product roadmaps to align development with deployment timelines. This also affects ADE sales and launch. For us, everything is connected — product, customers and ADE.

Team growth:

With more work, we need more hands! Our key priority is community growth, so we have onboarded Raman as our Community Manager. We also need one more technical guru for the dev team, so Mudsy has joined us to take all the DevOps responsibilities.

Events:

If you follow our social media accounts, you may have already seen that I spend a lot of time speaking at events! Q1 has the most important of all: MWC, but we also aim to participate in more events linked to AI and Open Networks.

Q2 — Getting real👌

This quarter will have some crucial milestones for us in product development:

  1. We have a Cell-Mesh trial for our European Space Agency project Track and Trust, where we will test the functionality of Cell-Mesh in Vienna. The humanitarian agency will then take the nodes in their trucks to Ukraine and will be able to track the shipments using Cell-Mesh and the Track and Trust application.
  2. A very important first milestone with our Liverpool project, where we expect to have the first deployment of Cell-Stack done in one of the venues.

New partnerships:

We are now working on expanding the reach of Weaver Labs and our presence across the DePIN communities. We expect to onboard new partnerships for the development of CellNet and the adoption of Adeno. This is done by expanding the use and adoption of Cell-Stack to provide connectivity assets and also gain partnerships to support the creation of a proposal-based market to bridge the connectivity gap.

Q3 — Speedy one🦾

New deployments for Cell-Stack:

This quarter is all about deployments, expansion and releases. We expect to be delivering at least 4 new venues in the UK including train stations, stadiums and city centre areas. We will test with our partners the integration of new use cases like monitoring using cameras, ticketing services and broadcast.

We also have a new exciting milestone for Cell-Mesh, where we release the integration of WiFi 6 and 5G in our device. We will test this with new partners and exciting use cases that involve real-time data sent using all networks at the same time, can you guess what that would be?

Adeno and CellNet:

We will have our second public pre-sale and then release a new version of the White Paper with more information about the marketplace, governance and ADE use case details.

Q4 — We’ve Made it!👏

New deployments for Cell-Stack:

Yes, we continue with these and we will have 2 more large deployments done by the end of the year. We will also release a groundbreaking trial of AI integration using Cell-Stack in a stadium with an exciting partner. We will talk more about this as everything settles and we can release more information.

Adeno and CellNet:

By the end of the year, we expect to have good traction with Cell-Stack which means we’re ready to launch ADE and start building CellNet as the network of networks. We expect in the last quarter to do the public sale and the listing of ADE in exchanges (more info to come as and when we have it).

All in all, an exciting year. Not to mention that events, podcasts and dissemination activities are always at the centre of what we do, and we will keep doing that. Also, the community is important, so we will keep engaging to be more accountable: AMAs, Fireside Chats and regular updates through our channels.
