Developers and users of open source embedded and Internet of Things tools to gather for three days of education and collaboration
SAN FRANCISCO, July 27, 2016 – The Linux Foundation, the nonprofit organization enabling mass innovation through open source, today is announcing the agenda for Embedded Linux Conference and OpenIoT Summit Europe, taking place October 11-13 in Berlin, Germany. These events are co-located, and one registration provides access to all sessions and activities for both events.
OpenIoT Summit Europe is for technologists and by technologists, gathering experts from the world’s leading companies and most important open source projects to present the information needed to lead successful IoT developments and bring smart connected products and solutions to market. It will gather embedded developers, application developers, systems architects and firmware developers to learn, share and advance the technical work required for the future of IoT. This is the first time the event will take place in Europe, following a successful inaugural event in San Diego this April.
Embedded Linux Conference Europe is the premier vendor-neutral technical conference for companies and developers using Linux in embedded products. The scope of the event this year has expanded to include user-space developers – the people building applications on embedded Linux – and will be the preeminent space for product vendors and kernel and systems developers to collaborate with these influential technologists.
