In enterprise IoT, plug-and-play looks like a win for everyone: builders love it because it reduces sales friction, enterprises love it because it lowers the entry barrier. But that shortcut comes at a cost. Builders get locked into maintaining an opaque black box, and enterprises discover that the default configuration doesn’t fit their processes or scale in their IT landscape.

The real art is mastering your IoT-specific core — in our case, the LoRaWAN Network Server — while enabling deep integration into existing systems. That’s why we offer The Things Stack as a Kubernetes deployment: instead of selling a black box, we let enterprises run our core where it belongs — inside their carefully managed IT infrastructure.

In this keynote, I’ll share how to escape the plug-and-play trap, why openness beats magic in enterprise IoT, and how deploying on Kubernetes illustrates the kind of integration that makes IoT software survive and scale.

By 2027, over 85% of connected device makers expect to shift to programmable connectivity models (Transforma Insights).

"Everything happens somewhere", and sensors can tell us with micro-precision where. But is that helping or hurting the push for IoT adoption? Humans have a vast array of ways of thinking about location, varying by culture and "job to be done". The "correct" answer to the customer's question of "Where is my cargo?" requires context, that most IoT systems are lacking. Are we just flooding customers with data, or are we giving them relevant information? And can't AI just "solve" this? This talk examines the challenge via specific examples and best practices.

Building Management Systems (BMS) commonly rely on the BACnet protocol to control heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC). However, when additional sensors or actuators are required to optimize performance and reduce energy consumption, the limitations of a fully wired BACnet network become apparent.

In such cases, a wireless, long-range, and low-power protocol such as LoRaWAN offers a flexible and cost-effective alternative. LoRaWAN can be easily integrated with BACnet, enabling seamless communication between new devices and existing infrastructure.

For this workshop, we will focus on the LoRaBAC (LoRa–BACnet) solution, a simple, free and open-source application based on Node-RED. The demonstration will use 30 LoRaWAN thermostatic valves, provisioned on The Things Stack Network Server. Both LoRaBAC and The Things Stack will run directly on the controller.

This approach is compatible with all LoRaWAN end-devices, all gateways, and the major LoRaWAN network servers.

Note: The participants needs a PC with an USB A slot available.

Agenda
Introduction to LoRaWAN–BACnet interfaces.

Presentation of LoRaBAC, a free and open-source LoRaWAN to BACnet interface.

Hands-on: register a thermostatic valve on the network server.

Hands-on: read BACnet objects created by the interface (room temperature, valve setpoint).

Hands-on: write BACnet objects (setpoint) to send a new target temperature to the LoRaWAN valve.

Data fusion on edge devices and gateways has the potential to give higher-level insights close to the data source. This technique provides the decision basis for edge intelligence including notifications and autonomous acting. The hands-on workshop introduces a new data fusion and enrichment framework based on message brokers that has become the essential data backbone in an industrial product for herd management. It involves trackers, weather stations and other LoRa-connected devices, fusing events from them with external APIs such as weather stations and vegetation surveys to provide a remote eye on the situation on the ground in remote areas. Modular components, integrated replay/reproducibility functions and a convenient control terminal are among the key features. The data fusion framework integrates directly with TTN's message brokering. It reduces the time needed to extract insights from the ground situation and brings added value to existing infrastructure such as gateways.

Disposable batteries aren’t built for scale. They’re costly to replace and harmful to the environment. Thales chose a different path, eliminating battery replacements entirely with an indoor asset tracking system powered by light energy harvesting and achieved a clear ROI through lower total cost of ownership.
In this presentation, we’ll present the case study and show how combining indoor photovoltaics with efficient power management allows devices and trackers to recharge from ambient light and operate for years without maintenance. We’ll also highlight the key enablers that make this a scalable, low-cost solution for long-term asset tracking.

What if building powerful IoT solutions didn’t mean choosing complexity? This session reveals how a next-gen platform uses AI and adaptability to deliver high-impact results—while staying simple enough for anyone to build with.

Picture an IoT without batteries. Light-powered energy harvesting paired with ultra-low-power radios enables devices that power themselves. Self-powered sensors and dense, always-available wireless networks are redefining connectivity across logistics, healthcare, industry, and smart cities. The benefits are tangible: near-zero maintenance, lower total cost of ownership, less e-waste, and deployment at massive scale without wiring or battery service. This “invisible mesh” unlocks cold-chain tracking, asset intelligence, condition monitoring, infrastructure telemetry, and interactive retail. It also opens new engineering frontiers: tight energy budgets, intermittent computing, energy-aware security, and frictionless provisioning for fleets of nodes. As Ambient IoT matures, we move toward a world where objects communicate wirelessly—autonomous, sustainable, and battery-free.

Traditional LoRa-based wireless solutions often rely on single-hop communication, limiting scalability, increasing edge energy use, and reducing reliability in dynamic environments. NeoMesh on LoRa introduces a paradigm shift by combining true mesh networking with LoRa’s long-range, interference-resistant PHY.

NeoMesh is a decentralized mesh protocol optimized for battery-powered devices. Each node acts as a router, enabling autonomous self-configuration, dynamic routing, and multi-hop communication — all without a central coordinator. Paired with LoRa modulation, it offers extended range and signal robustness, ideal for smart agriculture, infrastructure monitoring, industrial IoT, and remote sensing.

This presentation explores how NeoMesh on LoRa overcomes star topology limitations, supports dense networks, and enables years-long operation on small batteries. Real-world examples and data highlight its advantages in reliability, coverage, and power consumption.

As the IoT evolves how can we catalyze the next paradigm shift from simply connecting devices to enabling autonomous intelligent systems. What role can AI play in catalyzing this shift and how can new AI tools help us simplify the process of building human centric systems that are technology agnostic and human centric by design.

A forward-looking discussion on emerging IoT trends like edge AI, sustainability, and ethical data use, with women leaders sharing their vision for the industry's evolution.

The EU Cyber Resilience Act is expected to redefine how connected products are developed, secured, and maintained – but it’s not happening in isolation. Similar efforts like the UK PSTI Act, the U.S. Cybersecurity Executive Order, and Singapore’s CLS signal a global shift toward secure-by-design, risk-driven development, and full software supply chain accountability. As Chair of the IoTSF Regulatory Watch Group and Chief Innovation Officer at SignPath, Florian Lukavsky combines deep experience in secure software delivery and regulatory foresight – outlining why security must be embedded early – well before enforcement begins. The global direction is clear: secure software development is no longer optional – it’s the foundation of trust in connected systems.
Join this keynote to understand what’s coming, what it means for you, and how to prepare your development processes and supply chain practices to meet the next wave of global cybersecurity regulation.

Attendees will gain hands-on insights into applying this versatile, future-proof framework that simplifies meeting CRA requirements — and many other global security regimes — across the entire product lifecycle, from chip to cloud. Join contributors to the CRA regulation and SAF for an interactive session featuring practical tips, compliance simplification strategies, and a dynamic Q&A to help you act confidently and promptly in this urgent regulatory environment.

In IoT, you can’t do everything. The real challenge is choosing where to specialize, and where to collaborate. Too often, the industry draws artificial lines—like treating the gateway and the LNS as separate categories.

With the Things Indoor Gateway Pro, we broke that rule. We saw that indoor gateway hardware had become commoditized, so instead of treating it as a standalone product, we integrated it into The Things Stack as a managed extension at the edge. The result: zero-touch provisioning, cloud-managed firmware, a simpler developer experience and fixed operational costs.

In this keynote, I’ll share the lessons behind that decision: why commoditization is a signal to integrate, how to know what not to build yourself, and how rethinking categories can open new opportunities for collaboration in IoT.
