Event Focus

The event is designed to help you assess your business strategy and timing, the technical, consumer and governmental challenges, new business models and opportunities.

  • Assess the business cases for IoT / Industry 4.0
  • Identify added value profitable opportunities across the supply chain
  • Cover the full scope of IoT systems from the market leaders
  • Learn about the new disruptive technologies enabling IoT

Navigating IoT through the hype

The Internet of Things will connect existing systems and then augment those by connecting more things, thanks to wireless sensor networks and other technologies. Things on the 'edge' form mesh networks and can make their own automated decisions.

But where and how, in the scale of hype to reality, can the Internet of Things profit suppliers and users today? What are the pragmatic steps needed to enable the Internet of Things and widespread deployment of wireless sensor networks that are feasible and based on an ROI and not the hope someone else will pay for this? Who is buying IoT in the short term? Find the answers at this event in Berlin.
