Frequently asked questions
Nothing. The waitlist and your later membership in the user group are free.
The user group is reserved for users: specialists and managers from manufacturing companies, machine and plant builders, smart equipment manufacturers, operators and utilities who plan or run IIoT projects. Providers of IoT solutions are not part of the user group; for them there is the partner programme.
You join the waitlist and answer four short questions. We then get to know you in a short personal call, and you receive your invitation to the user group.
The exchange takes place online once a month, complemented by regular events and meetings. The group helps choose the topics, and much of the work happens in small groups.
One hour. After a short round of introductions, a member shares an impulse from practice, then small groups work on concrete questions, and at the end the group collects results and topics for the next meeting.
The IT & Architecture group focuses on technological implementation and scalability, the Strategy & Business group on economic benefits and strategic direction. If you're interested in both, you can join both.
In German. International formats are being planned.
