#IOTDAY 2025
The global IoT Day was started by the #IoT Council in 2010, with the goal to brainstorm on the emerging IoT Topics and further the discourse in EU & abroad. IoT Day in April has since been held annually and with a wide range of participants, growing to hundreds of locations across the world, with a variety of gatherings in places ranging from conference halls, online meetings, bars and cafes, Meetups, classrooms and parks.
The point of the IoTDay exchanges is to bring IoT/AI Trends out into the open to and with citizens and industry experts to collaborate on developments across borders. Every year IoTDay is an open invitation to the wider Internet of Things Community to set up an event, a lunch, a talk with the neighbourhood on what #IoT is about and what it means in everyday life for all of us now.
IoTDay in Brussels with a special celebration this time around is organised by the IoT Council and its members. Leading up to the fifteenth anniversary in Spring 2025, we are having a variety of events online and in person to celebrate the progress in global IoT Technologies and to discuss the range of current issues still needing to be resolved going forward, especially with the influx of AI and lack of security in developments, as well as conflicting standards around the world..

IBM Why celebrate World IoT Day? We can start with Industry 4.0
theme 2025:
THE NEXT FIFTEEN YEARS
AI/IOT security for better governance and business development around the globe? Event topics are flexible but should be valuable/outcome oriented.
As Gerald Santucci, former Head of Unit RFID and IoT at the European Commission says: “It’s a good idea to look into the next 15 years. By then, technology will have profoundly moved towards AI, LLMs, an integrated ‘internet of everything’, nature-based solutions for reinventing the production model in favor of a nature-positive economy, disposable identities, new governance of not only tech but also societies, and so forth! Therefore, let’s find a way to talk about the IoT not as an ‘island’ but as an essential subsystem of something that will have to combine and synergies solutions for Nature/Biodiversity, Living Organisms, Human Beings, and all sorts of Objects.”
What would a governance layer for this integration look like? What would be the new roles of leadership?
Here we are still looking for good answers for 2025 and beyond, so please join the discussions to move Secure IoT/AI applications forward safely for users around the world.
