"Issues of cybersecurity, privacy and interoperability should be top of mind for businesses seeking to leverage IoT technology," said Mike MacKay, President, Cross Platform Businesses, Bloomberg BNA.  "With a new administration, new agency heads and a new session of Congress coming to Washington, D.C., the regulatory landscape will certainly be altered.  We have brought together policy and business leaders to help attendees tackle the critical issues related to compliance and risk management for business innovation."

• Rose Marie Glazer, General Counsel USA, Siemens
