LPWAN Meetup #17

Join us for our next event with drinks and networking as we listen to great speakers who are making LPWAN a reality in the UK. At our meet up events, we want to give entrepreneurs a voice to share their LPWAN success stories with us to help inspire this rapidly growing community and expose you to challenges of real businesses that can be tackled with LPWAN. We also share insights about the latest LPWA trends that help entrepreneurs better navigate this rapidly moving technology landscape.

After so many years of wait, is Mobile IoT finally ripe for the UK market?

What are the issues of scaling LoRaWAN in real deployments?

Will we soon be able to support LoRaWAN traffic from space?

We will hear from Vodafone about their plans for NB-IoT in the UK and how they aim to support the community. Toshiba Labs will share experiences in scaling LoRaWAN and how to improve existing protocol properties. Lacuna Space (an exciting UK startup) will share their ambition and progress to make LoRaWAN access possible all around the world from space.

People of all backgrounds, ages and interests welcome!
