The Ministry of Science and Internet Communication Technology[1], together with Korea Internet & Security Agency[2] will be showcasing 10 rising IoT companies for the North American market. The plan is to open a joint booth at the IoT Tech Expo to create meaningful business relationships between the Korean IoT companies and potential U.S. partner companies.
The companies representing Korea will be introducing products that include smart city (location tracking), smart home (home automation technologies) and other innovative products — in various areas where the latest IoT technology has been implemented. The participating companies are looking to find a partner to cooperate on the technological / business growth aspects in the U.S. market but also to see business opportunities with major companies and distributors who are looking to expand their business using the latest IoT technologies.
The abovementioned roadshow will be part of the IoT Tech Expo North America 2018 event which is being held at the Santa Clara Convention Center from November 28 to 29 under the title — “Connected Innovation, Korea IoT Highlights”. On the 29th at 14:00, there will be a networking function hosted by the Korean IoT companies for the opportunity to meet with various professionals of the industry. Anyone is welcome to join the event and those who sign-up through Eventbrite will be offered a free drink at the booth.
Location — Stand 573, Santa Clara Convention Center
