Things Connected for local authorities customer showcase

Join us on Monday 16 July 2018 for a morning showcase event featuring cutting-edge UK businesses who are developing Internet of Things (IoT) solutions for Local Authority business challenges.

At the event, the companies will showcase their innovative IoT offerings, with a focus on solutions they have designed to:

• Cost-effectively and flexibly measure footfall data for Suffolk County Council
• Monitor and analyse air pollution data for Croydon Council
• Improve use of household waste and recycling centres for Thurrock Council
