Karina Popova gave a presentation on how Internet of Things (IoT) technology and real-time communication between devices can improve everyday life. She discussed how multi-network SIM cards that can switch between cellular networks provide a reliable connection for IoT devices anywhere in the world. Popova provided examples of how IoT is used for payment terminals, fleet management, smart metering, asset tracking, smart homes, e-health monitoring, agriculture, and more. She argued that multi-network SIM cards offer benefits like global coverage, advanced security, ease of use, flexibility, and control over IoT device connectivity.
