Keynotes speakers, Case Studies & Exhibitor Pitch
What if every product could speak—sharing its origin, journey, and service potential?
In this keynote, we explore how digital touchpoints are turning that vision into reality. As products become data sources, they reshape how information flows, decisions are made, and value is created. The Digital Product Passport plays a central role in this evolution, transforming static product information into dynamic, trusted, and interactive data along the entire lifecycle. From supply chain transparency to customer engagement and regulatory compliance, digital touchpoints are redefining the way we think about product ecosystems.
This session will show how these new interfaces activate the data value chain—making every product not just a physical good, but a strategic node in a smart, connected future.
Join Louise Bunemann for an insightful session on how upcoming EU legislation under the EU Green Deal is reshaping the industrial landscape. As regulatory demands for sustainability data intensify, companies must adapt or risk falling behind. Louise will shed light on the most impactful legislative changes on the horizon, and how these are accelerating the need for automated data capture technologies.
Discover how compliance can become a catalyst for innovation—transforming data challenges into strategic opportunities for sustainable growth. No matter what industry you’re in, this session will equip you with the knowledge to stay ahead of regulatory curves and harness the power of data-driven transformation.
Pre-book meetings with potential partners and customers and join them at the Network Lounge. Or show up, grab a coffee and croissant for morning meet and greet.
We are looking forward to welcoming you for cheering morning network.

Join Patrick Mosegård from Bolia sharing how the implementation of RFID technology is set to transform their supply chain operations. By integrating RFID tags, Bolia gains near real-time visibility across their supply chain—especially within transportation—enabling faster, more accurate scanning while significantly reducing manual checks and human error.
This increased level of transparency allows for end-to-end product traceability, from production all the way to final delivery. The result? Greater operational efficiency, improved order accuracy, and a more seamless customer experience. Learn how Bolia is leveraging RFID not only to streamline internal processes but also to build customer trust and drive long-term loyalty through enhanced reliability and responsiveness.
This session will explore how BoardPusher, a custom skateboard platform, partnering with IDENTIV is leveraging NFC Digital Product Passport to lead innovation in a traditionally analog industry, offering a real-world look at the intersection of tech, traceability, and the circular economy.
Join Stefan Genser to discover how NFC is leading the way in sustainability, traceability, and digital innovation.
