9th ANNUAL IoT FORUM, BRUSSELS, 15-16 May
AIOTI Secretary-General Damir Filipovic participated as a panelist at the 9th Annual Internet of Things conference that was held on 15 and 16 May in Brussels.
Damir spoke on the Session 1: IoT and the DSM: Will a European single market for IoT be achieved? What to expect post-2019?
The session was about a key ambition of the Digital Single Market strategy to create and support an appropriate environment for the successful rollout of IoT in Europe. A year before the end of the mandate of the current Commission, this session will be the opportunity to look at what has been achieved through initiatives (including the creation of AIOTI, the Digitising European Industry initiative and the European Data Economy Communication) analyse the state-of-play of IoT in Europe and crucially will explore what remains to be done to boost the take-up of IoT, unleash its potential and create a Single Market for IoT- allowing Europe to become a global leader in its development. This session will serve as an introduction to the rest of the conference. |
