Zurich entrepreneur project showcase
Details
Perhaps we don't all hear about them every day, but thanks to the ETHZ and local research centers, Switzerland, and Zurich in particular, is an important "nerve center" of activity in the IoT world.
What are some of the leading local IoT experts working on?
What projects are active?
What should you know about the tools that are available to launch your own project?
In this meeting we will have presentations by meetup group members and community leaders:
