Welcome to Telenor IoT Think Tank 2024!

Telenor IoT Think Tank is an exclusive gathering for our customers and close contacts. We want to create an inspiring meeting place for participants to network with experts, leaders and peers, and discuss key topics around IoT.

This year the theme is “IoT as an enabler of continuous digitalization“, and we will return to Karlskrona – the place where it all started 15+ years ago.

We will hear presentations and discuss in small groups on topics like how to future proof your connected products, interesting future IoT use cases, common challenges and how to tackle them.

In addition to the conference program, you will have a chance to visit both our SOC team (to see the room where the magic happens when you contact our skilled support team), and the new Test Lab.

The event will take place in Karlskrona, in the beautiful Naval Museum, where we will also enjoy a dinner between two submarines to wrap up the first conference day.

The whole program will be in English.
