IOTSWC25 will take place from May 13 to 15 at Fira de Barcelona (Gran Via venue) and will be held alongside the Barcelona Cybersecurity Congress. With over 11,000 visitors from more than 100 countries, it will offer a unique platform for networking, knowledge exchange, and the discovery of innovative solutions that are revolutionizing the industry.
This year, the event will focus on key topics such as digital transformation strategy (how AI is being applied, sustainability initiatives), emerging technologies and processes (supercomputing, deep learning), and work in space and other environments (navigation, vehicles, wireless connectivity, remote operations).
It will also highlight technologies as AI, Digital Twins, 5G/6G, augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), big data analytics, and cybersecurity.
During three days, more than one hundred sessions will take place, including keynote speeches, round tables, expert panels, case study presentations, and interviews, with the participation of over 350 globally recognized speakers.
IOTSWC25 will also host the Industry Solution Awards, which will recognize the most disruptive technologies in various categories: Sustainability Initiative Award, Excellence in Industry 4.0 Award, AI Innovator of the Year Award, Space and Connectivity Advancement Award, Cybersecurity Innovation Award, and Startup Award.
STEM Women Congress
This year, on May 14, the fair will host a special event, the STEM Women Congress, a space dedicated to promoting innovation, technology, and female talent in the STEM sector. In this context, sector challenges will be addressed from a gender perspective, highlighting the role of women in cybersecurity and the importance of diversity to drive innovative and inclusive approaches to the challenges of the future.
