Last year BCS and IoTUK jointly commissioned a study by RAND Europe, whose report is here.

This study pointed strongly to the need to put citizens their rights and interests at the centre of IoT policy debates. As IoT based services are designed and deployed the people involved continue to support this conclusion and feel that more concrete actions are needed to make it a reality.

In June CMA hosted a high-level workshop to discuss the topic. Issues included personal data and privacy, trustworthiness and trust, device behaviour, liability and market power issues.

Information on this workshop is here: http://www.bcs.org/content/ConWebDoc/58135

We decided to run a series of meetings to take this discussion forward the first of which will be on 25th October at BCS London and I am pleased to confirm the speakers and agenda below.

THIS IS A FREE EVENT WITH PLENTY OF TIME FOR DISCUSSION AND FOLLOWED BY NETWORKING DRINKS AND REFRESHMENTS
