Sponsor: Shenzhen Internet of Things Industry Association
Organizers: Ulinkmedia, IOTE, AIoTku, AIoT Star Map Research Institute
Forum Date: August 27, 2025
Forum Venue: Shenzhen World Exhibition and Convention Center (Bao'an), Hall 10, Hall 3
Forum Background:
Amid the surge in global IoT connections, energy supply and equipment maintenance costs have become key bottlenecks to the industry's scaled development. According to IoT Analytics, the number of global cellular IoT connections reached 3.9 billion in 2024 and is expected to exceed 29.7 billion in 2027. Traditional battery-powered devices, due to issues such as short lifespan, high maintenance costs, and pollution, struggle to meet the demands of massive distributed sensor nodes.
Against this backdrop, passive IoT technology, which enables device self-powering through ambient energy harvesting, has become a key path to advancing the IoT towards "intelligent connectivity." On the technical front, micro-energy harvesting technologies such as radio frequency power harvesting, vibration power harvesting, and thermoelectric power generation have already been commercialized. On the application side, passive IoT is rapidly penetrating consumer electronics, environmental monitoring, building automation, and other fields.
So, from a business perspective, what is the actual value of passive and micro-energy power generation technologies? How much cost savings do they offer downstream/end-user customers? How will the commercialization path and ecosystem be built?
For answers to these questions, please visit the IOTE2025 Passive Internet of Things and Micro-Energy Power Generation Ecosystem Seminar. The forum, which will open in Shenzhen on August 27th, will feature renowned companies from various industry segments, as well as research institutions such as the Shenzhen Tsinghua University Research Institute's Super-Lubrication Technology Research Center, to discuss paths to technological breakthroughs and application scenarios.
