Overview:

IoT is using the internet to interconnect computing devices embedded in everyday objects enabling them to send and receive data.

Things like wearables, thermostats, cars & trucks, lights, refrigerators, on livestock, machinery & plant, buildings, roads - the list goes on.

IoT devices record and transfer data to monitor important processes, give new insights, boost efficiency, and allow you to make more informed decisions. They tell you what's really happening, rather than what you assume (or hope!) is happening.

Why attend:

• Find out why tiny devices connected to the internet are part of the fourth industrial revolution (Industry 4.0)
• Through use cases and successes stories from various industries we'll share ideas that are accessible, practical, usable, useful and affordable
• See how IoT can transform your organisation - no matter what sector you're in - manufacturing, logistics & fleet management, retail, hospitality, agriculture, construction & civil engineering - this list goes on too!
