On September 10–11, 2025, the SMX Convention Center will become the epicenter of technological innovation as industry leaders, educators, government agencies, and tech enthusiasts gather for the Internet of Things (IoT) Conference 2025. With the theme “Resilience for All : Future-Proofing Communities ”, this year’s event aims to go beyond theory—bringing real-world applications of IoT, AI, machine learning, big data, data visualization, data science, the metaverse, and more to center stage.
Elaine Cedillo, the lead organizer, says the goal is to keep the momentum going after last year’s success.
“We just want to continue the discussion from Connected City as a highlight from last year to future-proofing our business, education and communities,” Cedillo shares. “This year, attendees will see the actual usage of IoT and other technologies—how they can be applied to solve real problems and create smarter, more resilient systems.”
“We have been organizing IoT events since 2016, and I believe the key is to educate the public for faster adoption of IoT,” Cedillo said. “By understanding and applying these technologies, we can improve business continuity in times of disaster, strengthen government services, and enhance disaster response capabilities.”
A Two-Day Technology Experience
From immersive exhibitions to collaborative discussions, IoT Conference 2025 promises something for every sector:
- Product Showcase – Discover cutting-edge IoT solutions and technologies, edutech innovations, system integrations for multiple industries, connectivity tools, data center solutions, and smart building technologies.
- Packethacks x Hack the Climate Final Pitching – Eight finalist teams composed of Professionals and College students from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao will present IoT projects ready for testing and deployment, tackling challenges from sustainability to public service.
- Roborumble – A lightweight robot competition open to all ages, where design, coding, and engineering skills meet in a fun and futuristic battle.
Knowledge Tracks for Every Audience
The conference features plenary sessions and targeted breakout tracks designed to meet the needs of various sectors:
- Resilient Cities Track Who should attend: Government agencies, enterprises, utilities, infrastructure, mobility, healthcare, logistics, manufacturing, telecommunications, and academia. Focus: Building adaptable cities capable of withstanding challenges through IoT-driven infrastructure, Big Data, Circular Economy, AI Tools and services.
- Connected Futures: The Tech Track Who should attend: IT professionals, engineers, changemakers, system integrators, and innovators. Focus: Advanced IoT technologies and IoT Architecture with Cloud, AI-powered analytics, Space Technology, Machine Learning to Predict and Mitigate Natural Disasters, LoRaWAN Technology, the next wave of Connectivity, and more.
- EduTech Track Who should attend: School administrators, owners, stakeholders, professors, teachers, and students. Focus: IoT-enabled learning environments, digital transformation in education, the future of connected classrooms, and AI in Education, including Practices and Ethics.
These breakout rooms and plenary sessions will feature thought leaders and industry experts who will share their knowledge on resiliency and technology. Among them are Dr. Franz A. de Leon, the Director IV of the Advanced Science and Technology Institute (DOST-ASTI); Arnold Bagabaldo of Packetworx, Inc.; Keb Cuevas, a registered Agriculturist; JC Peralta, a geospatial data and climate scientist; Monchito Ibrahim, Executive Member of the National Innovation Council and Marjorie Ann "Maan" Teodoro, Mayor of Marikina, a locality long recognized as a model of resilience, particularly in flood management and disaster response.
High-Level Round Table Discussion
In addition to breakout sessions, IoT Conference 2025 will host an exclusive high-level round table on policy frameworks that support local innovation, digital infrastructure, and the integration of technology in disaster risk reduction and public service delivery. This dialogue aims to bridge the gap between policy and innovation, ensuring that the Philippines remains competitive in the digital era.
“The round table discussion is crucial because it brings together government agencies, policy makers, system integrators, telcos, and service providers—the very key players who can fast-track the implementation of IoT technologies,” said Arnold Bagabaldo, the Founder and CEO of Packetworx. “By aligning our goals and strategies, we can work toward making the Philippines a truly connected nation and set the foundation for smarter, more resilient cities.”
Building the IoT Community in the Philippines
“We’re building a community where enterprises, government, educators, and innovators can work together,” she says. “Future-proofing isn’t about predicting the future—it’s about preparing for it through collaboration and connectivity.” says Ma. Raissa Helga Orbon, the Chief Marketing Officer of Packetworx and Co-Organizer of the IoT Conference
Attendees will also have the opportunity to network with event sponsors and partners, including leading tech companies, government agencies, and academic institutions who are championing the adoption of IoT solutions nationwide.
IoT Conference is supported by Infineon Technologies and in partnership with Tensei Philippines, Inc., Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Milesight, YFC-Boneagle Electric Co., Ltd. and Philcom as the official connectivity partner.
The event is also backed by big organizations such as IEEE Philippine Sector, Philippine Data Guardians (PDG) and Mechatronics and Robotics Society of the Philippines (MRSP). Organized by Redwizard Events and Packetworx Inc.
