cloud with leading technology and solution providers to get first
hand opportunities to see latest offerings in the IoT space.
“Cross industry collaboration is a critical way we will
accelerate the benefits of IoT across our personal lives, industry
and help create a better future across all continents - this forum
is driving key aspects that make this happen,” said Jason Cook, BT
America’s Security vice president and Fellow of the IoT Community
Advisory Board.

the rapid convergence of BigData, Cloud and IoT. The IoT Slam event
is a unique opportunity for participants to not only learn how to
survive in this perfect storm but to thrive in it by getting
actionable insights. In other words, it is a ‘suthrival guide’
