Technology Marketing Corp (TMC) and Crossfire Media have announced the launch of AIoT World Expo 2026, the premier event dedicated to the convergence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT). Scheduled for February 10-12, 2026, at the Broward County Convention Centre in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, AIoT World Expo will help IoT end users, developers, solutions providers, carriers and the Channel explore how AI is revolutionising IoT deployments across all industries.

Conference breakout sessions at AIoT World Expo 2026 dive deep into the power of AI in IoT development and deployment, IT operations and cybersecurity. Attendees will gain insights into real-world applications, best practices and the latest advancements in AI-powered IoT.

Key Focus Areas Include:

AI in IoT Development: Accelerating product design, deployment and performance with AI-powered automation and analytics.AI-Driven IT Operations: Enhancing infrastructure management, predictive maintenance, and intelligent data processing for seamless IoT performance.AI-Powered Cybersecurity: Strengthening IoT security with real-time threat detection, autonomous mitigation and AI-driven identity management.Edge AI and Real-Time Analytics: Using AI at the edge to process data faster, reduce latency and drive immediate decision-making.Intelligent IoT Networks: Applying AI to optimise connectivity, network efficiency and autonomous system performance.AIoT in Industrial and Enterprise Use Cases: Exploring AI-driven IoT applications in manufacturing, smart cities, healthcare and more.

“We launched AIoT World Expo because it’s clear that the convergence of AI and IoT is no longer on the horizon—it’s happening now, and it’s transforming industries at a staggering pace,” said Rich Tehrani, TMC’s CEO and group editor-in-chief.

“After more than a decade of success with IoT Evolution Expo, we knew it was time to spotlight the next wave of innovation. AI is changing how and where IoT works, and the organisations driving this transformation deserve a dedicated space to connect, learn and lead. We’re thrilled to bring together the entire ecosystem—from developers to decision-makers—to showcase how AIoT is reshaping the future of connected technology,” added Tehrani.

AIoT World Expo was created as a natural progression of the highly successful IoT Evolution Expo, which ran for over a decade and established itself as a leading event in the space. As predictions point to AI reaching near-human-level capabilities by 2027, the convergence of AI and IoT is no longer a future trend—it’s today’s reality. AI is not only changing how IoT applications function, but also where and how IoT operates across every industry. Whether you’ve been part of the M2M Evolution or the IoT Evolution journey, the mission remains the same: to empower end users, enterprises and the entire ecosystem to stay ahead of emerging technology. AIoT World Expo shines a spotlight on where investment is flowing, how use cases are evolving, and why AI in IoT is its own critical category, distinct from Generative AI.

According to Dave Rodriguez, the CRO for AIoT World Expo, AI is driving real progress in IoT applications now. “As AI advances, high-quality data—the fuel for machine-learning models—has moved to center stage. Paired with IoT, AI now powers digital twins, predictive maintenance, real-time supply-chain optimisation, adaptive manufacturing, energy-smart buildings, and remote health-monitoring systems—breakthroughs that were scarcely imaginable just a few years ago,” said Rodriguez.

The show expo hall, theatre sessions, and year-round content ecosystem will continue to support this innovation through collaboration, education and discovery.

AIoT World Expo will feature three days of AIoT-focused conference sessions, an exhibition hall showcasing the latest AIoT solutions, and networking events designed to foster partnerships and innovation.

AIoT World Expo 2026 is part of the #TECHSUPERSHOW, a series of collocated events including ITEXPO, Generative AI Expo, MSP Expo, Future of CX Expo and more, providing attendees with a comprehensive view of the technology landscape.
