IoT Tech Expo 2025: Countdown in Amsterdam

On September 24–25, 2025, the international IoT community will gather at the IoT Tech Expo Europe in RAI Amsterdam. Around 8,000 professionals, more than 200 exhibitors, and about 250 speakers are expected. The trade fair offers a comprehensive overview of the Internet of Things (IoT) and adjacent technology fields – from artificial intelligence and big data to cloud security and digital transformation.

The IoT Tech Expo is one of the largest European industry events. Thematically, it covers a broad field: IoT technologies, cybersecurity, cloud infrastructures, data centers, and digital transformation strategies. Organizers emphasize that the program is designed to present both technology trends and concrete use cases from practice. Companies looking to advance their IoT projects or find new partners are expected to benefit most.
More than 200 exhibitors will showcase their solutions, ranging from hardware to platforms and analytics to security services. Visitors can get a direct market overview and compare different approaches.
Speaker Lineup: Names Confirmed, Topics Still Missing
The lineup of announced speakers stands out. Among them are executives from renowned companies such as Jesper Toubøl of LEGO, Saransh Lamba of Starbucks, as well as representatives from Novartis, Carrefour, Volvo Group, and L’Oréal. The range spans from IoT engineering and cybersecurity to AI strategies in industry.
However, it remains open which specific topics the individual speakers will address on stage. While the names have already been published on the official website, (as of September 12) session titles and abstracts are still missing. This makes it harder for attendees to plan ahead which sessions will be most relevant. At the same time, it underscores the expectation that the Expo will provide further details in the short term.
Practice and Strategy in Focus
From the job titles of the speakers, potential focal points can be derived: edge computing at Starbucks, data and cybersecurity at Carrefour, or enterprise AI strategies at Novartis. These assumptions are based on official job roles, not confirmed session titles. Alongside keynotes and panels, the exhibitor booths will play a central role. Participants will be able to test technologies directly and learn about implementations across various industries. For decision-makers as well as developers, the Expo thus provides both strategic and practical takeaways.
