IOTA Hands-on Meetup

For almost 10 years, the only few well-known use for Blockchains and other DLT´s (Distributed Ledger Technology) is the p2p exchange of digital money and data, as well as the speculative aspect. But there is still a lack of understanding for people with no coding background, to grasp the vast possibilities of DLT´s and their versatile fields of applications throughout the various markets and industries.

This is why we are pleased to invite you to this IOTA Meetup on Thursday 12 September 2019, where we want to focus on real-world uses and live prototypes.

We will show you how this next generation DLT can be integrated into the “Internet of Things” and bring tangible value to future products and business models. You will experience various uses and will be able to explore community driven prototypes such as:



- a vending machine powered by IOTA and the Tangle,

- an automated car-to-car payment system enabling value transfers,

- IOTA hardware for integrated systems,

- CO2 certificate trading enabled through IOTA,

- how IOTA plays a role in the energy sector, smart factories and cities,

- smart waste management system and fill level sensors,

- and more...



You can experience the technology in real time, look behind the scenes of these concepts and connect with the makers. In addition, you will learn why the German based IOTA Foundation, a Non-Profit-Organisation, is working with “the Tangle” (instead of the blockchain) and what advantages it features in contrast to other DLTs.

Our aim is to give you a glimpse of how this new technology can change the world and enrich our lives through a sharing economy that is incentivised through IOTA's permission-less payment system. Hopefully, it will spark your imagination and allow you to consider how your company can innovate through the use of IOTA's unique network structure, the Tangle.

All industries are addressed; from supply chain, to machine economy, to healthcare. This new world of sharing economy doesn't depend on data silos but, instead, on an open and decentralised way of storing data securely and free from tampering. The Tangle enables multiple ways of providing data access so people and machines can buy and sell valuable data through IOTA and digital data marketplaces. IOTA is on the way to becoming the backbone of the Internet of Things and after this Meetup you will know why.

Next to the presentation area, where speakers will explain IOTA and present its uses, there will be an exhibition area, where several proof of concepts and prototypes will be demonstrated. You will be able to experience many exciting examples from the IOTA community and speak with the creators. You will even have the chance to open your Trinity Wallet (the mobile app for IOTA) and make a purchase via micro- or zero- value transactions.

Learn how your business can profit from this technology and attend our Meetup!
