The use of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies varies greatly across organisations, but one thing is certain — IoT will be a vital medium for data gathering in the future.

But having gathered stores of valuable information from a diverse range of sensors, devices and infrastructure, the problem becomes what to do with it all.

TechFire, in association with Three Ireland, will explore the future of IoT technologies, how their reach and applications are developing, and where they can bring true value for Irish organisations.

This briefing will take place in the Three HQ building, 28/29 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay, Grand Canal Dock

Experts in the development of the technologies, from Cisco and Three, will talk about building and managing networks, future directions, and how the gathered data will be mined for real intelligence to guide decision making, and deliver competitive advantage.


TechFire briefings are free to attend, but registration is required as space is limited.
