PRAISE FOR PREVIOUS OXFIRST CONFERENCES
A fascinating exchange between experts from different jurisdictions and specialities at a critical juncture in the development of standards necessary to achieve the interoperability of “things”.
Mark Powell
White & Chase
I most enjoyed the balance between competing views, or rather different views from all points of the spectrum. I also appreciated that the discussions remained polite and to the point.
Dr. Roderick McConnell
Patent Counsel, Continental Automotive
You’ve successfully managed a terrific event that was entirely virtual. I’m thoroughly enjoying it and of course will be back.
