The leading event for the convergence of IoT, AI, XR and Robotics technologies, returns on September 16th and 17th, 2026, at the Cité Internationale. This new edition promises to be rich in discoveries and exchanges, reflecting the vitality of a constantly evolving ecosystem.

From Hardware to Intelligence – The Future of Ecosystem Automation

In this keynote, Alexander W. Jonke examines how artificial intelligence is reshaping the phygital product ecosystems of the future. He argues that ecosystem automation is the missing link between today’s hardware and tomorrow’s value creation – driving productivity gains and enabling new business models.

Drawing on current advances in on-device, cloud, and hybrid AI, he presents U-Experten’s perspective on intelligence in physical products and demonstrates how this transformation is redefining both the scope of product development and the economics of product portfolios. The companies that understand and embrace this shift will become the winning OEMs of tomorrow.
