This month's talk is: Progressing Economic Change through Community-Driven Industrial IoT
By Alan Ward
A different angle on Industrial IoT, covering the ambition, phases, practicality and how we’re making it happen. Alan will introduce the design choices made throughout the project, including data transmission constraints, collation and where it makes sense to deploy different algorithms.
A project in it's early days, it will give attendees something to think about, give insight into challenges that we see in businesses and how we can approach them, etc.
Alan is an Independent Head of Enterprise Architecture, with over 20 years experience helping large companies and government agencies execute their strategies and recover failing change programmes, Co-founder of Tech Exchange Chesterfield, and CEO and founder of Goal Wrangler: an Enterprise SaaS application that reduces the risk of large change programmes derailing and steers technology challenges away from major issues.
