Workshop on Open Data Standards

Monday 6th October, 2:30 pm – 4:30 pm

Without open standards for data exchange, IoT development will be wrought with duplicated efforts and isolated development. The open data standards workshop will bring together professionals from diverse industries from green energy and oil services to national weather data services and fisheries all of whom will speak on one common theme – how in their experience the availability of open data standards for information exchange has benefited their individual industry segment. The theme of the workshop showcases how open data standards foster the intra and inter industry connectivity that will help drive the growth of IoT.
