and platform solutions in Hall N2, Booth E86
SAN RAMON, Calif., June 20, 2016 – The LoRa® Alliance, the leading technology alliance for the Internet of Things (IoT) and
low‐power wide area networks (LPWAN), and some of its key members will exhibit at Mobile World Congress Shanghai on
June 29‐July 1 at the Shanghai New Internaonal Expo Centre (SNIEC), Hall N2, Booth E86.
The LoRa Alliance exhibit will feature product demonstraons and showcases from its event sponsors: Gemtek, ST
Microelectonics, Augtek, Multech, Aclity and Semtech, as well as many sensor soluons from other members.
"With the global tracon for LPWA networks we are excited to showcase LoRa during the MWC in Shanghai for the first
me," said Jaap Groot, vice president of System Business Development for Semtech's Wireless and Sensing Group, and
member of the LoRa Alliance markeng commiᘀee. "Asia is an important market for LoRa, and at the event we will
demonstrate live soluons for many use cases like metering, supply chain, agriculture and building automaon."
"The LoRa Alliance is creang tracon globally, and we're proud to bring LoRaWAN™ to Asia," said Geoff Mulligan, chairman
of the LoRa Alliance. "As a global standard, we are focused on enabling IoT soluons on all connents, and given the uptake

The LoRaWAN technology is ideal to target
battery operated sensors and low power
applications as a complement to M2M
cellular connectivity
Richard Viel
Chief Operating Officer of Bouygues
With LoRaWAN, entire cities or countries
can be covered with a few base stations,
no longer requiring the upfront rollout
and maintenance of thousands of nodes
as in traditional mesh networking. This has
made IoT possible now, with minimal
infrastructure investment.
Olivier Hersent
Chairman & CTO of Actility
To encourage the mass adoption of low
cost, long range machine-to-machine
connectivity, open ecosystems are critical.
In addition to IBM's support of the LoRA
Alliance we have also released the IBM
'LoRaWAN in C' as open source under the
Eclipse Public License.

LoRaWAN has taken inteliLIGHT, our
already proven street lighting
management solution, to a whole new
level. The entire system becomes even
easier and faster to install, with a minimal
investment, unprecedented reach and
unlimited Smart City applications. It truly
is a game changer.

Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) Networks
are an excellent connectivity solution. They
complement well with existing M2M
business.
In order to deploy dedicated solutions and
sensors all around the world, an open
standard is needed to ensure
