<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I’ve booked the MB Seminar Room next Wednesday afternoon (20<sup>th</sup>) from 3-5pm (though will probably not last that long) to run an event on ECS PhDs in IoT. I’m not expecting a great turnout, but I
think it’s worth a stab.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The rough agenda: I’ll give a short overview to IoT/C-IoT and the different areas of interest across ECS. We’ll then have some current PhD students doing 1-minute talks about their IoT research. We’ll then
have a Q&A panel where attendees get to ask questions. Following that, we’ll have informal one-on-one discussions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:red">ACTION</span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt">: please can you each give me the name/email of one of your PhD students that’s working in the area of IoT that you think would be good to help
with this? <b><u>Please can you let me have this by the close of play on Wednesday (13th)</u></b>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Sorry I’ve been slow on circulating the minutes from the last management meeting – I hope to do this later this week.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
