The IoT is Evolving: See how at the IoT Evolution Expo

By

The IoT Evolution Expo is coming up July 17 to 20 at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas. This industry is moving at an ever-accelerating rate and the only way you’re going to stay on top of it is to stop for a moment and take a look around at what the IoT has been up to outside of your slice of it.

That’s why we host the IoT Evolution Expo: to give you industry folks a chance to get together and share ideas, learnings and strategies for expanding and creating new solution to your business and technology challenges. You might be looking to leverage improved cloud infrastructure, computing at the edge of the networks, real-time predictive analytics or any other part of the IoT, and only this event can give you a picture of the entire space in a vendor-neutral environment.

And we’re going to help. Obviously our speaking faculty is full of key thought leaders with whom you need to be speaking. But that’s not where it stops. Join us for networking throughout the week. Talk to the folks in the gigantic Expo hall. Attend the Battle Royal, where we’ll be pitting the best-in-class solutions, devices, software, and hardware developers in the world against one another to prove which is top dog.

Finally, make sure you note the winners of our Best in Show awards, designed to identify the exhibitors at our show that really bring the thunder. Our editors evaluate each of them throughout the show and on the last day, honor the exemplars. If you are one of those exhibitors, know that you’re in the running so you’d better have you’re a-game on-site if you expect to win.

Past winners have included: Reality AI, Scriptr.io, Gemalto, and Telit, among many others over the years.

Best Smart Home Innovation or Platform
