IoTMK: ACT now for The App Association
Arrive at 5:30pm if you would like to join Paula's optional tour of the MK:U Innovation Hub including the well-equipped maker workspace.
At 6pm Lawrence will briefly introduce IoTMK. We are users and makers (professional and otherwise) of technology products, be they physical, digital or virtual. Then we’ll quickly move on to our guest speaker…
ACT | The App Association is the policy trade body representing SME "innovators who develop mobile technology products that power the growth of the internet of things (IoT) across multiple sectors of the economy."
UK Country Manager Stephen Tulip understands how both industry and government work. After his last visit, he invited a group of us from MK to a House of Lords reception as part of ACT's Global App Economy Conference. Our message seems to have been heard and there are now two government consultations open. Stephen will tell us how we can respond most effectively.
He's also involved in most of the UK's Tech Weeks and can help us maximise MK's impact.
At 7pm, we’ll cross the square for ‘networking’ in the pub for as long as we all care to stay.
