## About

Orlando, FL is conveniently located in Central Florida but it's also a hub for innovation, technology, sports, health care and of course entertainment.

We are the second fastest growing economy in the US but we need to constantly innovate and provide a low barrier to entry for cutting edge technology. You can help lower the barrier of entry by joining The Things Network Orlando Community and participating in this open infrastructure inniative.

Our mission is to provide the entire Orlando with Internet of Things data connectivity by crowdsourcing the network by its citizens and local companies.

We are happy to have you join the community. Contact the core team and help us unleash the Internet of Things in Orlando.
