Hardware Pioneers 2024
Hardware Pioneers is one event that just keeps growing year on year with plans for an even bigger event in 2025 and over two full days.
This year's Hardware Pioneer was over one evening and a full day; both were well attended.
A running theme through the talks this year did appear to be connectivity with a talk from Particle on ‘Continuous Connectivity’ and a product launch from Blecon with ‘Bluetooth, meet the cloud’. Other trending topics included security, IoT and of course AI, particularly AI on the Edge.
It was great to discuss so many interesting projects with attendee’s from Smart Water Fountains in public places to Biodiversity Projects. It was also great to catch up with some of our amazing clients such as Gardin and Tepo, as well as our partners, Rak Wireless, Raspberry Pi, and AllIoT.

Smart Factory Expo 2024
This was our first year attending the Smart Factory Expo as part of Smart Manufacturing and Engineering Week.
It was a wonderful opportunity to catch up with partners and customers alike, and to see the latest advancements in the industry,
The highlight for us was Jonathan Custance's talk 'Building a Sustainable Future: The Role of IoT and AWS in Digital Transformation' on the digital transformation stage.
