Internet of Things Lab

The Internet of Things (IoT) Lab is a weekend-long event for designers, developers, makers and strategists to explore the extensive range of opportunities around connected devices. Forget the internet-connected fridge – the IoT Lab will help attendees ideate and create prototypes of tech-enabled products and services that provide functionality that people really need.

Schedule:

Fri., Sept. 27, 7:00-9:00pm
Meet the IoT Lab team and fellow participants at Manifest Digital (35 East Wacker, Suite 1000).

Sat., Sept. 28, 9:00am - 7:30pm
Ideation, planning and product development work sessions.

Sun., Sept. 29, 9:00am - 5:00pm

What to bring:

Bring your laptop or tablet and any equipment and resources you’d like to bring along to work with to design, develop and prototype your ideas, feel free! Teams will present their final product or service concept in the way that shows it best – including video, rapid prototypes, wireframes.

About the IoT Lab: A hands-on masterclass and workshop

After a meet-and-greet in a bar on the Friday evening to get to know your fellow teammates, the two days of intensive problem-solving and prototyping start with coffee and inspiration on the Saturday morning. The IoT Lab team will go over the schedule, representatives from Claro Partners will share their IoT planning tool, and then the teams will dive into brainstorming, designing and prototyping new IoT product and service concepts. Teams will finish the weekend with a well-defined service, product prototype and business model. Find out more information at http://www.claropartners.com/iot-lab-chicago/

The IoT Lab is is facilitated by Claro Partners, organized by WebVisions and kindly hosted at the studio of Manifest Digital.
