First speakers announced for ThingsCon 2019

First speakers announced for ThingsCon 2019

At ThingsCon you can always expect a mix of in-depth sessions, workshops and keynotes. This year we are introducing themes into our Thursday program, so we can work together in dedicated tracks towards a responsible IoT. We wouldn’t have themes without the thought leaders who lead us through the topics…

We are happy to name our first set of speakers and session hosts: Marleen StikkerTracy RollingAlexandra Deschamp-SonsinoKlasien van de ZandschulpMirena PapadimitriouCayla KeyNamrata PrimlaniTijmen Schep, Geke van DijkKlaas KuitenbrouwerRob van KranenburgDavide GombaJeroen BarendseCristina ZagaHeather Wiltse.

Just like last year we will have a special program for students and create an exhibition with inspiring work on the state of Responsible IoT. Find more information on the conference on the conference page.

This year’s location: Het Nieuwe Instituut

We are very pleased to have found a perfect location for this year’s conference. The Nieuwe Instituut is located in the heart of Rotterdam and is a great fit as one of the main centers of debate about architecture, design and digital culture through research and a public programme. HNI is the perfect spot for both facilitating all activities and providing an inspiring place for interaction.
