Afternoon – Edge Compute in the Factory Setting

Track will concentrate on how the explosion in edge computing power benefits the industrial user. Crucial analytics using data direct from the sensors and actuators can now be fed into higher-level ERP and CRM backbones. And the intelligence built into the edge is enabling revolutionary advances in AI and machine learning.

Agenda:
2:00 – Disrupting IIoT with Edge Intelligence
Fred Yentz, CEO IoT Platforms, Telit

2:30 – Analytics Fuel Data-AI-Action Loops
Matthias Roese, Chief Technologist, Manufacturing/Automotive/IoT, HPE

3:00 – How Edge Computing Will Revolutionize Smart Factories
Mike Hibbett, Solution Architect, Taoglas Next-Gen IoT

Morning – Platforms and Clouds Manage Data

Software platforms and Cloud services s for IIoT are doing a lot more than manage devices and connectivity. Public and private data exchanges are incorporating data sources that are entirely outside IIoT deployments but can be used to manage the edge and more. At the same time, purpose built IIoT platforms are offering new benefits.

Agenda:
10:00 – Keynote: eSIM – A Disruptive Technology for Global IoT Deployment
Fernando Llobregat Baena, Head of IoT sales for Enterprise, BICS

10:45 – The Role of IoT Device Management in IIoT Deployments
William Yan, President Americas, AVSystem

11:15 – Connecting the Factory to the Value Chain
Ricardo Buranello, VP Factory Solutions, Telit

11:45 – Role of the Hybrid Cloud in IIoT
Thorsten Milsmann, Director of IoT, Hewlett Packard Enterprise
