## About

Our goal is to provide Dublin with a free Internet of Things data network starting with the City Centre area! Want to get involved? Join us and host a gateway or help us roll out the network or develop new connected devices and applications.

If the Internet of Things (IoT) is going to have the ability to revolutionize the way we live and work then everyone should have the opportunity to participate. Inexpensive long-range radio technology is now available that can help up create an open and free network covering as much of the island of Ireland as possible, starting with Dublin and Belfast, where the first gateways are already operational. Let's do what traditional telecommunications companies can't and bring the Internet of Things to everyone!
