“The value of bringing together the global LoRaWAN ecosystem cannot be overstated,” said Donna Moore, CEO and chairwoman of the LoRa Alliance. “LoRaWAN Live is consistently the ‘must-attend’ event for end users seeking to find solutions and deploy the technology, as well as for companies developing products and solutions using LoRaWAN. This year’s program will build on our recent successes across smart cities, buildings and utilities and will showcase LoRaWAN’s strengths for accelerating deployments across industrial sectors. We’re returning to Germany because of its historic leadership in industry and manufacturing, and central to the program is how smart industry leverages LoRaWAN to meet the sustainability, productivity and workforce goals of Industry 5.0. I look forward to connecting with our global audience to discover the latest LoRaWAN developments, find solutions and learn how to grow business.”
LoRaWAN Live Munich will feature insightful sessions on best practices for large deployments, technology innovation, and success stories highlighting new feature adoption and achieving ROI.
