" summary

Opening remarks list logistics and concrete aims: the conference runs 200+ slots across workshops and talks, is volunteer-run, and a design contest already produced the T‑shirt image. The stated technical goal is to make Internet of Things services interoperate rather than remain vendor islands. Sponsors named include UNESCO, Google, GitHub and MySQL; the venue wires lab Wi‑Fi urgently to support demos and a VR exhibition. Sunday includes kids Tech sessions for hands‑on learning.
