Fraunhofer IoT Innovation and Networking Days

22 – 23 May, 2017

Leading industry experts claim the Internet of Things (IoT) as the next Industrial Revolution. The IoT applications seem to be limitless. The department User-Centered Ubiquitous Computing at Fraunhofer FIT works on IoT-technologies and applications in the fields of Smart Factories & Sustainable Process Industries, Smart Grids and Smart Cities.

The IoT Innovation and Networking Days at Fraunhofer FIT give participants from research and industry the opportunity to meet face to face, exchange experience and discuss about ideas in a relaxed and open environment. Representatives from the European Commission, stakeholders from industry and research organizations provide insights to their working area and current research questions.

Among the main topic areas:

  • Smart Manufacturing and Sustainable Process Industry,
  • Smart Grids and
  • Smart Cities & Civil Engagement

the following aspects are covered by the networking sessions:

  • Large Scale CPS and IoT Deployments
  • Big Data Analytics and
  • Blockchain

Networking and further information

A World Café gives the opportunity to talk about common topics of interest in an informal manner. In addition during the included Networking Buffet in the evening of day one, there will be chances for in-depth conversations and further matchmaking. Project demonstrations and posters from all interested partners will accompany the evening buffet and provide insights into the variety of attendees´ activities.

We are looking forward to active networking, inspiring discussions and creating innovative ideas together with you! If you have any questions don´t hesitate to contact us.

To foster discussions and networking all attendees are invited to present posters and demonstrations illustrating their current working topics and research areas. The participation in the Poster and Demo Session is free of charge.

The registration is open. Two day participation, food and beverages are included in the workshop fee.  


The IoT Innovation and Networking Days feature the EXCELL – Big Data Applications for Cyber-Physical Systems in Production and Logistics Networks project.
