IoT Innovations - Virtual

Opening talk – overview of sessions and key highlights

Chubb is the largest publicly traded property and casualty insurer in the world and is among the few insurers that are actively collecting and analyzing IoT data today against a rich claim history. In this presentation, learn how the insurance industry is using IoT technology to change its traditional model of “repair and replace” to “predict and prevent” – a major shift in the relationship clients of all industries have with their insurer which, ultimately, will change the paradigm of the risk management practices.

McKinsey Report estimated in 2017 that globally 127 new devices connect to the Internet every second. Now, in 2021 Consumers are more connected than ever before. Sadly, research suggests that over 50% of customers who try to set up smart devices on their own will run into a problem. IoT products are more complex than a single application or a device and we at Huawei, surely understand that.

Join us for the fireside chat to discuss the challenges of consumers and limitations faced by Vendors when it comes to offering Simple Onboarding, Smooth Cross-device Interaction, and Adopting Emerging New Interfaces. We would love to introduce how Innovative HarmonyOS Solutions for IoT Scenarios addresses these end-user pain points.

• What are the latest innovations and solutions across the disruptive technologies landscape?
• Knowing the gaps across industries – where can you make a difference by innovating?
• Looking at the shift in the ways we innovate and what this is for – no longer just about ROI, but the ethical considerations.
• Moving from the idea of PoC’s ‘proof of concept’ to MVP ‘minimum value products’.
• A look at the opportunities disruptive technologies provide to create a more sustainable future – the shift to Society 5.0.

• Understanding technology collision – a look at when old meets new.
• The pitfalls automation users are facing now and the role of technology convergence.
• Why we have security threats on our automation systems and tips to prevent them.
• A holistic look at the latest automation technology trends.

Private networks offer range and scale for IoT deployment, carrying high bandwidth as well as low latency requirements. As the digital age continues to move faster and faster almost daily, enterprises face connectivity, security, and performance issues.

In this presentation, learn how private networks can be deployed securely at scale to help enterprises take control of security, management, and policy on their IoT network, with a conceptual demonstration for IoT deployment supporting mission critical use cases.

NEOM is pioneering cognitive communities – using AI and predictive analytics on a shared data layer to create synthetic urban intelligence. In this presentation, learn how this transforms IoT in the urban setting, enabling seamless, proactive and intelligently autonomous services woven intuitively into the environment for technology-enhanced human life.

It’s no secret that IoT is now critical for the Enterprise. This session explores the various use cases and benefits for deploying secure IoT in a multitude of industries such as smart cities, manufacturing, and more. Attendees will learn:

• What are the key requirements and challenges of Enterprise IoT?
• How to combat some of the common restrictions and security implications surrounding deployments.
• Why 4G LTE is the best option for connecting IoT quickly, securely, and easily, and how cellular allows you to be prepared for the next generation of networking as 5G becomes more readily available.

• How interoperable are current network services?
• Standardisation – securing the full line of connectivity and where to start.
• Can intelligent-switching options be the solution for multiple location IoT deployments working in real-time? Is this where eSIM’s help create a holistic connection?
• Using AI, Edge and other disruptive technologies to optimise products and services.
• Looking at long-term strategies for deployments – knowing what connectivity you will need in the future and not just for the short-term.
