by Startacus Admin
Announced last month, Startacus is happy to highlight that Irish Tech News in partnership with DCU Alpha Campus, will be hosting a one day IoT conference in Dublin on the May 30th to highlight and showcase the depth of IoT innovation taking place in Ireland.
The 30th May event is set to bring together the leading innovators and thought leaders in IoT to share insights and the latest exciting developments in this space.
Currently at the stage of finalising the panels and topics to be covered, they have penciled in working titles, ranging from; 
-
“Why should I care if my coffee pot can talk to my toaster?
-
”The importance of good IoT storytelling, Indigenous SME IoT success stories, insights from those who are nailing it”
-
"IoT Startup voices, insights from the startup coalface"
through to themes that address the future of IoT, such as…
-
“IoT and the future of work, what will it mean for you?”
-
“IoT 2027, what the future will look like”. You can check out full list of current suggested topics here.
When the conference was first announced, Irish Tech News were more than happy to take suggestions on other topics, themes and thought leaders that should be considered for the event.
