In collaboration with Digi International and Silicon Labs, Solsta is running a series of technical seminars across the UK in April 2026. This event will be hosted at our Accrington Stanley venue and will focus on scalable mesh networking and low-power wireless solutions for connected systems.
The sessions will examine practical approaches to designing secure, reliable wireless communication for applications such as smart cities, infrastructure, remote monitoring, utilities, warehousing and agritech. Topics include mesh network design, security best practice, power-efficient architectures and deploying wireless connectivity at scale.
Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of how modern wireless technologies support safe, resilient device connectivity and how to apply these principles when building or expanding IoT and industrial networks.
This seminar will take place at the Accrington Stanley Football Club, Wham Stadium on the 16th April 2026. 9.30am registration for a 10am start. Lunch and refreshments will be provided. Read the full agenda here.
