Who-is / I-am: Calling All Speakers

We believe the industry’s future success and ability to address critical issues like electrification, net zero, carbon-free energy consumption, and healthy buildings will require a collaborative discussion involving every professional, not just a set of familiar faces. To help make this easier for conference organizers, we’re going to curate a list of folks you might not have heard from in the past. Learn more here.

“Who-Is/I-Am” comes from the BACnet protocol. When a BACnet device wants to learn about another device with which it needs to communicate, the device goes directly to its network and asks “Who-Is.” The answering device can then respond to the entire network with “I-Am,” informing every network device how to reach it. We aim to broadcast many new “I-Am” responses from our collective human networks as part of this process.
