Are you an Internet of Things provider, user, thinker and in general an IoT actor and player – then take part in the Canadian Internet of Things Conversation at ThingkFest 1.0 by iotNorth.
ThingkFest is an online event allowing participants to share their involvement and hear what others are doing, innovating, and thinking in the IoT space. It’s a meetup-like event with a difference – instead of one or two keynotes, it’s a showcase with many fast-fire short-talks on different topics from across the full thingk3D IoT space, across Canada.
Short-talks are selected from talk proposals submitted by Canadian companies, organizations, and individuals, and everyone is welcome to attend to hear the talks and participate in the discussion and Q&A.
For more insight - view video.
Topics range IoT innovations, products and services, solutions in different verticals, different domains and disciplines that enable or are affected by IoT, and socioeconomic and digital governance interplay with IoT.
We invite you to submit a proposal before June 15th for a Short-Talk on your favourite IoT topic. Visit the ThingkFest page for more info and to submit your proposal.
