07:10pm - 07:30pm Internet of Things – A Value Proposition for Europe - Jorge Carvalho (http://be.linkedin.com/pub/jorge-carvalho/9/690/467), European Commission (http://ec.europa.eu/)

"The evolution of the Internet of Things embedded in Smart Environments and Platforms forming a web of "everythings" has been identified as one of the next big concepts to support societal changes and economic growth at an annual rate estimated at 20%. The Commission is launching (October 2014) a challenge for the delivery of an Internet of Things (IoT) extended into a web of platforms for connected devices and objects. They should support smart environments, businesses, services and persons with dynamic and adaptive configuration capabilities. The biggest issue will be to overcome the fragmentation of vertically-oriented closed systems, architectures and application areas and move towards open systems and platforms that support multiple applications. The challenge for Europe is to capture the benefits from developing consumer-oriented platforms that require a strong cooperation between the telecom, hardware, software and service industries, to create and master innovative Internet Ecosystems."

07:30pm - 07:50pm The wearable revolution is tech - Dr. Bertalan Meskó, CEO of Webicina (http://www.webicina.com/), Medical Futurist

"Being a medical doctor and a geek led to massively quantifying myself for making medical decisions based on data. Scores about physical, mental and emotional health of over 6000 days have been logged; and now handheld devices constantly measure my ECG with a smartphone, fitness and even more."

07:50pm - 08:10pm Connected bicycles - Daniel Falus Co-Founder and CEO of Shoka.me (http://shoka.me/)

Shoka.me is a situational awareness app for cyclers and car drivers that can help to avoid accidents caused by negligence.
