IoT 2021 took place from Tuesday (Nov 9) until Thursday (Nov 11) and featured a (parallel) Workshops / Tutorials / Doctoral Consortium Day on Monday (Nov 8). The main program and all side events took place on the Campus of the University of St.Gallen as well as online. All lunches and coffee breaks were provided on-site for the full four days and we provided many opportunities to interact physically and virtually.
