“The Internet of Things became a buzzword that describes way too many things and leaves many people confused. But at the same time it points to an upcoming technology revolution as the Internet connectivity extends to physical things, plants, clothes and human bodies. The impact on businesses and human lives is going to be no less than that of the Internet itself 20 years ago. Daniel Obodovski, who recently published a book on this topic will talk about deconstructing the Internet of Things: technology, biggest opportunities for entrepreneurs and investors and, most importantly, will share some success stories in this space – about startups that made it big.”
