Event Details:

Overview:

The Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming a bit more than a fun three letter acronym. “The Internet of Things installed base will grow to 26 billion units by 2020,” “IoT product and service suppliers will generate incremental revenue exceeding $300 billion, mostly in services, in 2020. It will result in $1.9 trillion in global economic value-add through sales into diverse end markets.”

We had been part of many IoT related events in the city in last 6 months. The generic feedback from the community was none of them were technical enough. Also there is a lack of clarity in the community be it a student, developer or business on where to start when it comes to IoT.

Hence we have decided to have an event which talks about How to get started with IoT, a practical approach, where the industry expert will talk you through the technical fundamentals & how you can actually get started with an IoT project.

It’s inevitable that IOT will transcend all avenues of life, every aspect of life, business, society will be connected. We are entering a different world of intellectual surround that will predict, guide, estimate, and enhance behaviors, patterns and lifestyle. With this level of influence of technology in life, it has zero tolerance for error and mistakes which could cause life and collateral damages.

Hence this talk will also cover IOT testing and will touch on avenues and changes that IOT will bring in.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."
