About Working Groups
The Edgecross Consortium has set up various types of working groups, including a technical working group and marketing working group. Through the activities of each working group, the member companies work on expanding and globally promoting Edgecross for their own business growth.
Technical Working Groups
Breaking through academic and industrial barriers, we gather accomplishments and reflect them into Edgecross's specifications.
Industries, academic institutions, and related organizations cross beyond the borders of industrial fields such as FA and IT, for technology exchanges. Experts with the latest knowledge of all fields gather and actively collaborate in working group activities for establishment of Edgecross specifications by theme, in order to achieve an open evolution of IoT.
Vendors and system integrators can work toward accelerated development of their products and services by sharing the latest information in these working groups, and they can also create an ecosystem in which they can communicate with member companies beyond their own field. Also, manufacturers can work together with other members to find solutions for their issues.
Example of Working Group Activities
- Enhancement of Edgecross specifications.
- Establishment of compatibility test specifications.
- Establishment of security guidelines. etc.
Marketing Working Groups
We work to promote the value brought by Edgecross's open IoT to the world.
We are promoting Edgecross globally, aiming to generate business opportunities for member companies, as well as expand the entire industry. We also plan and implement measures based on various marketing viewpoints in each working group, in order to establish networking among members and users.
Example of Working Group Activities
- Planning and conducting all types of events, including seminars for members and users, as well as exhibitions.
- Planning and producing tools for web content, catalogues, news releases, etc.
