RFID Journal, the leading source of news and in-depth information regarding radio frequency identification (RFID), the Internet of Things (IoT) and related technologies, has announced that SpotSee, a global leader in shock, vibration and temperature monitoring via low-cost connectivity and data, will be the cornerstone sponsor of RFID Journal LIVE! 2020, the company’s 18th annual conference and exhibition. This year’s LIVE! event will be held at the Orange County Convention Center, located in Orlando, Fla., on Apr. 28-30.
SpotSee provides IoT solutions designed to help companies monitor damage in their supply chain operations in real time. According to SpotSee, shipping damage costs the global supply chain as much as $2.3 trillion each year. Jan van Niekerk, the company’s VP of engineering and innovation, will explain how RFID can help uncover and reduce that damage by as much as 50 percent, during a general session presentation offered during the first day of the event.
SpotSee will also display its range of connectivity products, including the ShockWatch RFID damage indicator, a finalist for Best New Product in this year’s RFID Journal Awards (see Finalists Unveiled for 14th Annual RFID Journal Awards ). LIVE! brings together leading solution providers with a highly qualified audience of end users, providing a unique opportunity for customers to view live demonstrations of leading-edge technologies. “When thinking of the best place to launch the ShockWatch RFID damage indicator, we couldn’t think of anywhere better than RFID Journal LIVE!,” Van Niekerk says.
“We are fortunate to have an exciting and prestigious group of sponsors and exhibitors for this year’s LIVE! event,” says Mark Roberti, RFID Journal’s founder and editor. “This year’s program will provide in-depth education sessions, hands-on training, and the opportunity to meet with leading technology providers and experts.”
LIVE! 2020 will feature nine industry-focused conference tracks, eight technical and how-to tracks, the co-located IEEE RFID technical event, fast-track training presented by RFID4U, RFID Professional Institute certification and more than 150 exhibitors showcasing the latest RFID products and solutions.
