TROY – If you’d like to attend the IoT Tech Connect event free of charge, you need to sign up at the website by Aug. 1. After that date admission will be $19.95 to attend the event, Oct. 11-12 at the Troy Marriott.

IoT Tech Connect is co-produced by CloudTech1.Com and MITechNews.Com. The show is regional, meaning folks in Southeast Michigan can drive to it and be in the heart of Oakland County where more than 4,000 technology companies are based. It will feature the hot IoT Technologies in Michigan. Those include Autonomous Vehicles, Cybersecurity, Virtual and Augmented Reality, Health Tech, FinTech, Connected Tech, Drones and more.

“We expect this show to kick off a series that we plan to produce that will include a spring 2018 show as well,” said Rick Beckers, CEO of CloudTech1.Com. “IoT technology is evolving quickly, and we’re want to keep Michigan businesses up to speed on those changes.”

We’re developing ways for businesses to connect with the organizations that are promoting and developing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) education for young people. Means businesses can start that STEM talent recruiting process early. Partners, so far, include the Mobile Technology Association of Michigan, Tech248, and Automation Alley.

IoT Tech Connect will feature the latest products and services in the exploding Internet of Things business sector (IoT), including autonomous vehicles, Virtual Reality, Augment Reality, connected tech, such as mobile devices, plus the hardware that makes it work including sensors.

What’s more, IoT Tech Connect will feature a pitch competition for startups in the IoT space. And it will feature the educational and association groups that work with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) plus women in technology.

“We are giving Michigan a regional IoT conference,” said MITechNews.Com Publisher Mike Brennan. “We want to feature the cool IoT technologies we are developing in the Great Lakes states and make it easy and convenient for all these companies to showcase their products and services.”
