In our March event I presented a somewhat negative, glass half empty, view of IoT and the hype and confusion surrounding it. I am still not entirely convinced any two people actually mean the same thing when they say IoT ...

There is of course a positive, glass half full, side to IoT and Wearables, with a plethora of novel devices and capabilities capable of being put into the world around us or around our person. This is opening up a huge range of new possibilities which the creative entrepreneur can take advantage of. Our view of what is “normal” in the world is on the move again and that always creates opportunities!

To explore this we are delighted to have three speakers who are very much active in the space to share their views, experiences and challenges of working in the IoT and Wearables space.
