Mark Stanley

Mark Stanley is the founder of Thingitude, an award-winning team based in Reading (UK) that is delivering the promise of IoT to improve council services and quality of life for *all* communities.

Mark is a strong advocate of “bottom-up” community-led innovation in smart technology, and firmly believes that the residents and businesses of a city should influence the local “Smart City” agenda rather than leave it in the hands of Silicon Valley IT giants.

He is UK ambassador for The Things Network and co-organiser of The Things Conference UK.
