The Internet of Things (IoT) Tech Expo Europe 2016 event are expected to bring together key industries — including Manufacturing, Transport, Health, Logistics, Government, Energy and Automotive – from across Europe for two days of top-level content and discussion.
On Day Two of the event, Ultan Mulligan, vice chairman of Marketing and Communications at oneM2M, will speak on the technical standards panel ‘Creating a standards framework for IoT’ at 10.40am to discuss:
- What does the concept of standards really mean in the context of IoT?
- How can the varied standards relevant to the area effectively be integrated for IoT solutions?
- Can a verticalised approach to standards work?
- How can Open Source approaches to both hardware and software accelerate market adoption?
Speaking alongside Ultan on the panel will be Milo Broekmans, chief architect at USEF Foundation, Dr. Dave Raggett, fellow at W3C, and a senior representative from the Open Interconnect Consortium (OIC).
