About the Conference
Join us at the largest RFID conference in the Nordics!
This year’s topic:
RFID & IoT:
How to make your enterprise intelligent
through the use of smart wireless technologies
* Gain insights into the latest trends and developments within RFID and IoT
* Get hands-on knowledge on how to utilize these technologies to improve your own products, services and businesses
* Get inspiration from companies at the forefront of the use of smart technologies in Scandinavia on how to successfully transform your company to an intelligent enterprise
* Meet visionary first mover companies and experts within RFID and IoT
IoT reaches out to touch Anything, Anywhere – it’s not just about connecting devices to the Internet. It’s about how everyday things are becoming a part of a connected world. In fact, as the IoT reaches critical mass, the majority of networked objects will be wirelessly connected via passive, low-cost RFID technology, sensors and other data gathering technologies.
Smart tracking and tracing technologies (wireless identification including RFID, WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC, ZigBee, LoRaNet) are already used to increase revenue, reduce waste and prevent fraud, and, not least, to create new business opportunities across industries. Providing transparency enables your organization to make better decisions – to be an intelligent enterprise.
The event is our 9th consecutive annual conference. It’s the largest RFID conference in the Nordics, and it’s a great networking opportunity;
Time: May 23, 2019, 08:30-17:15
Place: IT University in Copenhagen, Rued Langgaards Vej 7, DK-2300 København S.

Welcome and Introduction
Keynote: Is Automation The Key to Retail Success?
What’s happening in retail? How has the shift in shopping behaviour impacted retailers around the world and will robots take over?
Automation is now very high profile in modern retail.
Mark will address why this is happening, who is doing what in the retail world and in particular the technologies including RFID that support the automation.
As Director of Retail Industry Solutions at Zebra Technologies, Mark works closely with retailers and hospitality businesses to provide input on how to face the challenge of a new digital retail landscape, where customers are often more connected and informed than shop floor staff. Mark helps retailers focus on developing a vision for their retail business that aims to improve customer experience and drive business efficiencies.
With over 28 years’ customer focused experience, Mark Thomson has developed in-depth knowledge of the EMEA and global retail market place and regularly speaks at industry events throughout the EMEA region including World Retail Congress, Retail Middle East, RBTE and Euroshop. He has worked closely with retailers on the pain points of modern retail and explains how technology solutions can be an integral part of their business strategy to help them solve their real business challenges from supply chain to store.
Prior to joining Zebra Technologies Mark held senior roles in Financial Services and Hospitality businesses.
Keynote: The RAIN RFID Alliance, with over 160 companies worldwide, is increasing the awareness and accelerating the growth of the passive UHF RFID industry.
In this keynote speak, President of the RAIN RFID Alliance, Stephen G. Halliday, will explain how end-users in a variety of markets are increasingly aware of RAIN RFID technology’s capabilities and how it can help solve their problems.
Steve will talk about the growth of the technology, which industries and geographical locations are moving fastest, and where the next big application will come from.
RFID & IoT trends and Nordic update
• Significant RFID implementations in the Nordics
• Important trends to be aware of within RFID & IoT
• New application areas for RFID/IoT?
On behalf of the RFID i Danmark Network, Henrik Granau will be giving his status on RFID & IoT in the Nordics.
Introduction to the Exhibition
In an introduction to the Exhibition we will get 'teasers' and invites from each of the Exhibitors in their '30 seconds Elevator Pitch'.
The ExhibitorsKeynote: PRY-ID – Making electrical installations intelligent
Prysmian Group just recently won 2nd place in "Most Innovative use of RFID/IOT to enhance a product or service" at RFID Journal Live.
Speaker: Birger Hodt, Project Manager Innovation, Prysmiangroup Norge ASKeynote: "Use of RFID in every day life in a Hospital"
How has the daily operations changed after implementing RFID?
A practical oriented visual tour on the largest RFID installation in a Hospital in the Nordics.
Including videos from actual use.
Introduction to breakout sessions
Wrap-up in Plenum
User case 1 (Manufacturing): Real time consumption and relocation of raw material with RFID
User case 2 (Returnable Assets): "Passive tags in an active world"
Container Centralen has just applied 3.500.000 new UHF tags to the European flower container pool.
Why and how - and what is the perspective in a surrounding world “focusing” on IoT, 5G, Active tags and Blockchains.
User case 3 (Healthcare): "How can tracking help put the patient first at the hospitals?"
A new hospital is under construction in Odense, and the preparations for the IT support of the service logistics are already ongoing.
At the current Odense University Hospital, a pilot project is being carried out to gather experience from the use of an asset tracking system in the clinical departments.
By helping the staff locating the assets used in their contact with the patients the staff gain more time and focus for the patients.
Project manager, Martin Ungermand, will present the project's background, the technology and system behind and the initial learnings.
User case 4 (Safety): "How to ensure maritime safety using RFID technology"
DanPilot’s boat service consists of 34 specialized pilot boats distributed around the entire country.
This way they are fast and efficient in delivering a pilot to all pilot marks in Danish waters.
Danpilot is presenting on how they are using RFID to manage safety equipment at sea in this very distributed organizational environment.
User case 5 (IoT): Waste Management – Intelligent bins
In cooperation with Wastecontrol, Telia has developed a fully automatic IoT Solution for Intelligent bins.
The sensor based system monitors and registers the volume in the bins.
Cost reductions are achieved. Telia will present how, and how much.
User case 6 (Transport, Logistics and Automation): The Intelligent Transportation Box
The Intelligent Transportation Box is a solution developed for monitoring and automated handling and sorting of Blood Samples from practice to laboratory.
The flow from when the blood sample is taken at the medical practice and to when the analysis at the Clinical Biochemical Department is done, will be presented by Intelligent Systems (member of RFID i Danmark).
