How the Internet of Things and Digital Marketing is Connected, by Dmexco 2016

DIGITAL MARKETING INNOVATION WORLD CUP kick-off at dmexco 2016

​​The Internet of Things will pave the way for the next decade of predictive advertising. If the Internet moves into every thing and makes it smart from flower pots, to coffee machines, cars or sports arenas – what does this mean for digital marketing? The flower pot could tell you the preferred fertilizer, the coffee machine could order required spare parts automatically and could suggest coffee combinations according to your tiredness and activity level, the smart oven could tell you stories about the best way to prepare your steak, and your connected car could guide you to the next flower shop. New media models will evolve from intelligent things, connected wearables and the IoT. dmexco and Innovation World Cup Series have now officially kicked-off the DIGITAL MARKETING INNOVATION WORLD CUP at dmexco 2016 to drive innovation and foster the generation of new business and media models in this area.
