Smart Transportation - The cornerstone of smart city development

The growing need to move people and goods in and around large urban areas in a more efficient and safer way is paramount. More and more stakeholders are now addressing the value of combining technology and intelligence into existing transportation hubs and networks. By doing this, it is argued that cities can improve the experience for commuters, and make these systems far more efficient, capable and safe.

The Industrial Internet of Things: Using IoT to transform traditional industries

More and more businesses involved in traditional economic activities now realise the full potential of the Internet of Things. The Industrial Internet – where IoT technologies collect and analyse data from machinery, and use that data to adjust operations - is becoming widespread throughout many traditional industries in Europe, and indeed worldwide. This transformation, which is being regarded as a new Industrial Revolution, provides excellent opportunities to drive economic growth. It is helping businesses to not only focus on cost reduction and improve efficiency, but it also offers new business opportunities by driving innovation.

- What current efforts are being made by businesses, policymakers and other IoT stakeholder groups to help promote the Industrial Internet of Things?
- How is Europe ‘re-industrialising through innovation’?
- What new business opportunities do IoT technologies and solutions offer traditional industries such as manufacturing, farming and agriculture?

Smart Energy and Utilities

The Energy and Utilities sectors will be one of the main beneficiary sectors of the Internet of Things by 2020. With rapid growing populations and limits on power production capacities, the Internet of Things enables energy and utility companies to tackle many of the pressing challenges they face. This ultimately helps to increase productivity and improve real-time decision making, as well as providing an excellent opportunity to connect with customers.

Technological developments in areas such as smart grid, waste management, and the power & water industries result in advanced security threats, with large-scale IoT applications and services are vulnerable to attack and information theft. For IoT benefits to be realised in this area, it is the job of all stakeholders to work together to make advances in cybersecurity to combat those with harmful intent.

- What IoT applications are being rolled-out across the Energy & Utilities sectors?
- What are the main challenges for industry and how can these be overcome?
- What are the main security considerations for this sector, and what security measures are being taken to prevent unauthorised access?
- Specifically, what challenges does the European Smart Grid face and what role can IoT technologies play in overcoming these challenges?

Smart Retail: The Internet of Things as a 'game-changer' for the retail industry

The retail industry adds enormous economic value to the European economy and contributes to employment, innovation and overall competitiveness. The digital economy plays a significant role in this area and continues to help ensure the retail industry remains one of the key pillars of the European economy. A growing number of retailers are adopting IoT technologies in order to help drive their business, increase competitiveness, and to also improve the shopping experience for their customers.

This transformation has also been fuelled by a growing number of customers wanting to stay connected to their shopping experience. There are a number of different examples that demonstrate the role that IoT is playing in the retail industry, and experts believe that these examples are just the start, and future retail will offer all sorts of opportunities and possibilities.

- What is the current landscape for smart retail in Europe, and how does this compare with other regions like the United States?
- How are retailers leveraging IoT technology to drive business?
- How is the Internet of Things helping to improve customer experiences?

Smart Healthcare and Wellbeing: Revolutionising a sector

Like many other industries, the IoT revolution in healthcare is happening now. From better patient care at hospitals to remote patient monitoring at home, as well as accurate data collection and documentation, IoT can improve people’s healthcare experience dramatically. The benefits of IoT in healthcare do not only affect individuals however. Governments are constantly trying to identify ways to lower national healthcare budgets, and IoT is seen by many as the cavalry coming over the hill, and the way to realise these targets.

- What enabling technologies are making the IoT possible in healthcare?
- How is IoT changing the healthcare sector in Europe for the better?
- What new devices and upcoming trends are appearing on the market?
- What role are wearables playing in this area? How are they empowering the individual?

Smart Homes and building automation

The European Smart Home market is already expected to expand rapidly over the coming years, and with this, it also offers significant new business opportunities. From network and broadband providers to chipmakers; from web companies to appliance manufacturers, we are already seeing a number of new collaborations in each of these business areas.

However, there remain a number of challenges to achieve complete widespread smart home adoption. Certainly, we are already seeing a number of homeowners buying individual wireless products to solve specific home automation needs. However, how these devices work together to offer a true smart home experience is proving to be quite challenging.

For example, there are a number of different standards approaches and protocols currently available for smart home technologies, and stakeholders argue that this hinders the smart homes full potential.

Another key challenge in rolling our widescale smart home adoption is issues surrounding privacy. Day 1 discussed the uncertainties and solutions associated with IoT deployment more widely, but what specific solutions are stakeholders offering to reduce consumer fears of privacy harm associated with the smart home?

- What market trends are driving consumer interest in the smart home?
- What channels are helping to drive the smart home market? How much of an influence are energy, security and telecoms channels playing?
- Who are the key players and early market leaders in the European smart home market?
- What platforms are available to support smart home applications?
- What is the role of mobile in the ‘Home of the Future’?
- How can the Cloud reduce the potential for conflict among standards?
- How crucial will industry collaboration be for the success of the smart home?
- Will one standard ever dominate the smart home market?
