Connected objects, micro-payment and home automation are likely to be among the highlights.

Introduced by CARTES Network exhibition director Isabelle Alfano and Stephane Distinguin, CEO of Fabernovel, the session will also include a roundtable discussion and there will be a Tech Playground at which attendees have the chance for some hands-on interaction.
