Atlanta IoT Showcase May 4

eChain Technology had a great showing in the first annual Atlanta IoT Showcase held at Tech Square Labs.  This turned out to be an incredible event that sold out three times!  Attending were representatives from some major companies and influencers like Coca-Cola, Intel, AT&T, Georgia Tech and more!  Attendees were able to see next-generation technology being developed by many of Atlanta’s leading technology startups.  For several participants, this was the first public demonstration of their solutions.

“What the Heck is IoT? 

Bill Eason and Russ Clark  (Research Scientists at Georgia Tech)

Whether you’re 15 or 75, your life is increasingly affected by “smart” devices that we use to understand and control what’s going on around us. Come learn about the “sensorification” of our world and the impact that the interconnection of these devices will have on every person, building, city, industry, and company.

The Emerging Risks and Benefits of IoT

Forrest Pace, AIG

Sensors will transform how businesses make data-driven decisions. What factors should companies consider when deploying sensors in the workplace? Can a worker be punished because of data collected from an IoT object? We’ll examine these questions and much more.
