Industry of Things World USA 2022: Beyond the hype

The fifth edition of the award-winning Industry of Things World USA was unanimously characterized as a successful conference with more than 400 registered attendees aiming to shape the Industrial Internet of things during 2 event days filled with case studies, networking sessions, a start-up innovation lab, an IIoT Bootcamp as well as an innovation lab tour.

With keynotes on AI, Machine Health & Predictive Maintenance, the value of IoT platforms, new business and service models, and IoT security – one thing became clear: the Industrial Internet of Things is moving and improving diverse areas in and around manufacturing. There is still a need for discussion and planning, but most importantly the need for collaboration across job functions and with different stakeholders to maximize the effectiveness of these technologies and tools.
