⚡️ Intel IoT Roadshow 2015 – São Paulo Edition
In June 2015, I was selected to participate in the Intel IoT Roadshow, held at Insper, Vila Olímpia, in São Paulo. It was part of a global initiative by Intel to promote its Internet of Things platforms, especially the Intel Edison and Intel Galileo development kits.
Participants received a free hardware kit and had 48 hours to build connected solutions and share knowledge. It was less about competition and more about learning, experimenting, and being hands-on with new technology.
Although I didn’t submit a final project, I spent the weekend testing sensors, deploying quick firmware tests, and exchanging ideas with developers, hardware hackers, and IoT enthusiasts from across the country.

“O evento ocorreu na última semana e contou com uma grande quantidade de participantes interessados em explorar os recursos da plataforma Edison, da Intel, criada especialmente para quem deseja embarcar na onda da internet das coisas.” — Intel organiza evento em SP para promover kit de desenvolvimento IoT – TecMundo
It was one of my first deep dives into Intel’s embedded platforms and a great opportunity to explore what IoT could be at a time when it was still a rising trend.
