The global IoT Day was started by the #IoT Council in 2010, with the goal to brainstorm on the emerging IoT Topics and further the discourse in EU & abroad. IoT Day in April has since been held annually and with a wide range of participants, growing to hundreds of locations across the world, with a variety of gatherings in places ranging from conference halls, online meetings, bars and cafes, Meetups, classrooms and parks.
The point of the IoTDay exchanges is to bring IoT/AI Trends out into the open to and with citizens and industry experts to collaborate on developments across borders. Every year IoTDay is an open invitation to the wider Internet of Things Community to set up an event, a lunch, a talk with the neighbourhood on what #IoT is about and what it means in everyday life for all of us now.
