Things
From smart factories to wearable fitness devices, from the connected home to air pollution
monitoring, from future retail to re-envisioning urban parking, discover how the internet of things
will impact your life, workplace and business.
After the success of the San Francisco edition, the RE.WORK Internet of Things Summit is coming to
London. 200+ leading technologists, entrepreneurs, influential businesses and innovators will come
together at ETC Venues St Pauls, London, on 12-13 March 2015, to discuss the opportunities of the
latest Internet of Things (IoT) trends.
In San Francisco, the Internet of Things Summit featured speakers from Google[x], Jawbone, Voltera,
Atlas Wearables, 3D Robotics, Siemens, Electrozyme, General Electric and more. The Internet of
Things Summit in London looks to showcase similarly distinguished experts leading the IoT
revolution.
As well as discussing the latest technological advancements in connectivity, data management,
software development and industry standards, the summit will explore practical applications of IOT
across sectors including manufacturing, retail, healthcare, transport and future cities. The explosion
of M2M devices and unprecedented level of data created is providing a unique opportunity to look
at how this rapidly advancing technology can make a difference across society and business to solve
real problems.
Key themes to be discussed at the summit include:
The Industrial Internet
Cybersecurity & Privacy
Big Data in the IoT
Healthcare & Wearable Technology
Urban Infrastructure & Future Cities
Environmental Monitoring & Open Data
Smart Homes & Automation
Paul Clarke, Director of Technology at Ocado, says:
When viewed far out at sea, a tsunami can be mistaken for a ripple. However once they hit land, not
only do they rise up and engulf everything before them but unlike a normal wave, they keep on
coming. Two massive technology tsunamis are heading our way the Internet of Things and Smart
Machines. Their collision with each other and us, is going to generate huge new opportunities in
areas as diverse as healthcare, entertainment, disaster management, smart appliances, smart homes
and smart cities.
Christian Nold is a designer and academic researcher from London, who invents participatory
technologies for local areas and grassroots groups, which respond to socio-technical issues. Christian
will discuss Sensing the Smart City, a snapshot of a long-term ethnography of participatory
environmental sensing technologies. Through this research, the Internet of Things emerges as never
finished and in a continuous process of being re-designed and re-used by a broad range of
stakeholders.
Sarah Campbell, Founder & Creative Director, SenseLab London
With neoteric concepts for elevators that tweet, intelligent cars and responsive buildings, Sarah
Campbell designs award-winning products for that enhance interaction between people, things and
the environment. She founded SenseLab to accommodate a recent demand for digital interventions
into reshaping city spaces and buildings. Outcomes engage user-centred thinking, emerging
technology and smart materials to bridge digital and physical spaces. At SenseLab they believe the
building itself is the interface to facilitate change, but only if designed to be engaging and rewarding
for people.
Benjamin Males, Co-Founder, Studio XO
Benjamin Males operates in the interdisciplinary grey area between science and art, with experience
in mechanical engineering, nuclear reactor technology, design and architecture. By combining this
advanced understanding of the physical world with the sensibility of product design, Benjamin has
quickly become a leading figure in the hybrid design community. In a digital society where over
7billion mobile devices are owned and human interactions occur in the digital, Studio XO have
developed a platform to make our intelligent technology more emotional. Benjamins presentation
at the Internet Things Summit will involve demonstrations of the XOX sensor on himself and the
attendees.
Tamara Giltsoff, VP of Business Development, Product Health
Product Health believe that products able to pass data about themselves have the potential to
extend product lifetime, reduce material waste and offer access to products as a service. Connected,
intelligent products challenge the make, sell and dispose business model, which depends on
features warfare, one-off physical sales and designed obsolescence. Intelligent products instead
allow a continuous and intimate connection to a customer via the product and the potential for ongoing service revenues. Tamara Giltsoff will demonstrate this concept at the summit, using case
studies including work in the off-grid solar and battery sector in Sub-Saharan Africa, in her
presentation Intelligent Products & a Circular Economy.
The Internet of Things Summit will explore how IoT technologies will affect the future of the global
community, and the challenges we face by integrating them. Learn from experts in the wearables,
sensors, smart textiles, big data, open data, connectivity, energy infrastructure and M2M. Futureproof your business.
