“Smart Sustainable Cities” is the theme of the conference in recognition of the ongoing evolution in the MENA region that focuses on the deployment of “smart” technologies, operating principles, and policies.
“A Smart Sustainable City (SSC) is an innovative city that uses Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and other means to improve the quality of life, the efficiency of urban operations and services, and competitiveness, while ensuring that it meets the needs of present and future generations with respect to economic, social and environmental aspects.” ~ITU
The theme also highlights the importance of IoT technologies in making Smart Sustainable Cities applications a reality. All the projects, papers, posters, presentations, and events at the conference are focused on contributing to nurture, cultivate, and accelerate the adoption of IoT technologies and applications to benefit society.
Three full days of original paper presentations, tutorials, workshops, keynotes, demonstrations, industry sessions and social events designed to further career opportunities, and the in-depth understanding of the latest IoT advancements worldwide.
IEEE Global Conference on the Internet of Things (2019 IEEE GCIoT) aims to provide a forum for researchers -from both academia and industry- to share their latest research contributions, and exchange knowledge with the common goal of shaping the future of IoT and smart sustainable cities.
The GCIoT 2019 is expanding this year to include a focused one-day Industry Summit as part of its industry track to address the needs of
practitioners in the industry. It also intends to achieve a cross-fertilization between the private sector, the public sector and academia to accelerate
the adoption and implementation of new technologies.
The Summit aims to bring together companies, senior industry leaders and experts to discuss the
challenges in adopting and implementing IoT technologies.
The Triple Helix Model of Innovation refers to a set of interactions between academia, industry, and governments that foster economic and social
development.
This framework was first theorized by Henry Etzkowitz and Loet Leydesdorff in the 1990s, with the publication of “The Triple Helix,
University-Industry-Government Relations: A laboratory for Knowledge-Based Economic Development”.

In the 2019 IEEE GCIoT, you will be able to meet with people from a wide range of backgrounds, who you may not encounter at your workplace or institution. This is a perfect place for meeting with people in your field with whom you haven’t made contact in a while.
You will have the opportunity to talk to individuals such as technical managers and researchers, or entities like startups and universities. They may even give you advice on how to enhance your own work.
One more compelling reason to attend IEEE GCIoT 2019 is for you to present your work. It’s a good chance to practice presenting what you do
before diverse people from similar, related, and/or completely different areas of study.
Presenting will increase your confidence in the work you do, and will give you a new perspective on your work. People may ask questions that
will allow you to see your project from a different angle. You will also get the opportunity to receive feedback on your work from people
who are seeing it for the first time, which can be quite insightful.
