Review 2021

Industry of Things World 2021 Hybrid Summit

The seventh edition of the award-winning Industry of Things World was unanimously characterized as a successful conference. More than 650 registered attendees gathered digitally and physically in Berlin to shape the future of the Industrial Internet during the 2-day event filled with case studies, networking sessions, workshops and information-filled streams.

With keynotes on the digital transformation unlocking the full potential of IIoT, and AI & 5G in smart factories, one thing became clear: it is now time to put the IoT hype into action. There is still a need for discussion and planning, but most importantly the need for collaboration across job functions and with different stakeholders to maximize the effectiveness of these technologies and tools.
