The Economist Innovation Forum 2017
One of our main missions here at IIoT World is to help create innovation spread faster. That is why we work with both startups and corporations to bridge the gap and help them work as equal partners.
In light of that, we’re happy to partner with The Economist on their upcoming Innovation Summit in Chicago to cover the event.
