## About

Our mission is to provide the entire city of Cambridge with IoT data connectivity through crowdsourcing.

Cambridge is at the heart of technological innovations in the UK with the Universities and successful start-up companies, enabling engineers and scientists to naturally develop TTN here. The University of Cambridge has made a major and ongoing investment in LoRaWAN in Cambridge to provide great coverage in the city itself and the immediate surroundings.

TTN Cambridge will provide logistical information for researchers, engineers and scientists in order to drive forward creative design and use of IoT into the next decade.
