Subject: FW: International Summit on Smart Wearable Systems - time to register!

Dear Ecma members,

As you may already know, together with the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL) Ecma is organizing an "international summit" (basically a "workshop") on smart wearable systems, which is often considered as a subset of IoT, or at least related to it. The summit is open to everyone and is free to attend! It will take place at the EPFL Campus in Lausanne, Switzerland on 13-14 October 2016.

The International Summit on Smart Wearable Systems aims at discussing these new exciting technologies, the challenges of implementing them, their interoperability, and last but not least the needs for standards and even more.

What Ecma hopes to get out of this event is clear: to find its role in the standardization of wearables and if possible to launch such standardization projects as soon as our membership find this useful and is ready to support it. Therefore we would like to encourage the Ecma membership to come and actively participate in this event.

In addition take the opportunity and learn from academic and industry experts and visionaries about the latest and greatest on smart wearable systems in watches and smart watches, food and wellbeing, sensors, devices, medical applications and others. The presentations (so far, the list is not complete yet...) include:

·         Personal Lifestyle and Health, by Ramesh Jain, Professor,  University of California, Irvine
