EPoSS/KTN Brokerage Workshop for the European IoT Large Scale Pilots

EPoSS (the European Technology Platform on Smart Systems Integration) and the Knowledge Transfer Network are working together to organise a consortium building workshop for the EU funded IoT Large Scale Pilots.

The upcoming H2020 ICT Work Programme for 2016-2017 will include a call for IoT Large Scale Pilots as follows:
• Pilot 1: Smart living environments for ageing well
• Pilot 2: Smart Farming and Food Security
• Pilot 3: Wearables for smart ecosystems
• Pilot 4: Reference zones in EU cities
• Pilot 5: Autonomous vehicles in a connected environment
• Pilot 6: Water management for resilient cities .

The EPoSS Brokerage Workshop on 26 June 2015 in London is dedicated to:

1. the organisation of EPoSS participation in the IoT pilots, and
2. linking EPoSS members, as representatives of the supply side, with representatives of the demand side for successful consortium building.
