Future Labs celebrated Friday once again. Held in early July, the 2nd TGIF (Thank God It’s Friday!) was opened to the entire Altice Labs community and focused on NB-IoT technology. About 20 collaborators attended the event.
The dynamization of the session was carried out by Isabel Borges, from the Tecnological Coordination and Innovation department, who for this purpose made a generic exposure of the technology and then demonstrated the connectivity to the network through a development board.
This is the first NB-IoT (Narrow band IoT) connection experience in the northern region of Portugal after this technology has been made available by Altice MEO in mobile network cells in Esgueira and Ílhavo.
There is always a background theme upon which this rather informal activity is based, but the participants are free to discuss other themes or projects they find interesting.
