Richard Brennan, oneM2M's MARCOM Chair explains the event's significance: "Within the industry we see more initiatives building towards a ubiquitous Internet of Things. oneM2M is working with multiple organisations to establish interoperability standards for connected things, across multiple industry sectors. We are excited about this first Interoperability event and the support from oneM2M, ETSI, TTA, and the European Commission.  We encourage industry players to attend this event and test their implementation of the oneM2M standards."
