NGIoT will be present with the talk “IoT and Edge Computing: Future Directions for Europe” at 12:00pm – 1:00pm CET

The session explores the future of Edge Computing including its role of safely connecting devices; and provides insights into the requirement for orchestration with cloud services, the importance of integrating connectivity and computing with AI-based reasoning and automation, while addressing the challenges and barriers for European stakeholders across different sectors.
