From Industry 4.0 to iWatch: The Internet of Things (Ascent B2B IT Forum)
Event Information
Description
Leading industry analysts have predicted 26 billion devices will be connected to the internet by 2020, creating a several trillion dollar market in Internet of Things (IoT) goods and services. With claims that this sector could usher in the Fourth Industrial Revolution, it’s important to look beyond the hype and better define the opportunities and challenges presented by IoT.
What’s realistic for the Internet of Things in 2014 and beyond?
Our next B2B IT Forum on Tuesday, October 14, 2014 will outline the current state of the IoT market and will discuss the near term opportunities for innovative companies to embrace IoT across various industry segments.
Along with our co-hosts INEX Advisors, we will examine several case studies that uncover IoT’s applications, business models and monetization, and data policy and privacy.
Panelists include:
- Moderator: Christopher J. Rezendes, President of INEX Advisors, a global firm focused on IoT technologies
- Doug Merritt, SVP Field Operations at SPLUNK, an operational intelligence platform that analyzes and visualizes machine data
- Stephen Pavlosky, Equipment Insight Lead at GE's Intelligent Platforms division
- Jamshed Dubash, COO of Senaya (supply chain technology company focused on the IoT for remote and mobile asset management)
- Mike Helfrich, CEO of Blue Force Development, (mobile Internet of Things for national security, public safety, and the distributed enterprise)
- Carl Levine, Community Manager at Dyn, (monitoring, control, and optimization of online infrastructure)
As with previous Forums, we expect a sold out crowd, and require that you register ahead of time.
