Panelists to Discuss the Future of the Internet of Things
CHICAGO, IL--(Marketwired - Oct 23, 2014) - The Illinois Technology Association (ITA) will be holding its second annual Exploring the Internet of Things (IoT) Summit on November 20, 2014 to provide information and insights on the future of IoT technology.
"Since we held the first Exploring the IoT summit last year, technology -- and what we think of as technology -- has grown exponentially," said Fred Hoch, CEO, ITA. "As each day passes, consumers are introducing more connected devices into their lives. If your organization is not adapting to these technological advances, you'll be left trying to catch up to the competition. Our summit provides the opportunity for attendees not only learn about the current state of IoT, but to contribute to the discussion surrounding the future of this rapidly changing technology."
The City of Chicago has transformed into an incubator for the technology world and will continue to be a key player in the next evolution of IoT and other technologies. The Exploring the Internet of Things Summit is a daylong event consisting of moderated panel discussions with some of Chicago's top technology influencers.
Built into the event schedule is a networking reception to enable summit guests to connect with key technology leaders, c-level executives, heads of development and decision makers to further the discussion on the IoT. Attendees will also have opportunity to see IoT in action, with interactive exhibits from workplace health company Fitness Cubed and wearable device maker Ampy.
The ITA is pleased to announce the following speakers and moderators for this year's panels:
