This week we join tens of thousands of our closest friends at Embedded World in Nuremburg, Germany, for a week of discussions, demos, and learning about what's happening and about to happen in edge computing.
We have twenty one partners there and we will be having some fun with our "AI In The Real World" Scavenger Hunt, as well as sponsoring the IoT Stars evening event on March 11.
Inasmuch as business travel can become a grind and separate us from home life, we value these person-to-person interactions in between our online calls, where we can better understand how our Foundation can help people learn, grow and be successful.
Join the Conversation – Share & Engage!
We’d love to hear from you! Tag us and use #EdgeAIFoundation, #FutureOfEdgeAI, and #EdgeInnovation to share your insights, projects, and takeaways.
