Ecosystem program
IoT Technology Hub
A hands-on Packetworx learning and prototyping space where students, LGUs, developers, and partners can see working IoT devices, understand LoRaWAN deployment patterns, and move ideas toward real Philippine use cases.
The Hub is positioned at Packetworx's office in the Ortigas Center area, making it reachable for campus and partner visits.
Visits focus on sensors, gateways, dashboards, payloads, and practical use cases rather than classroom theory alone.
What the Hub is for.
The Hub gives visitors a practical bridge between IoT curiosity and deployable solutions. It lets participants inspect devices, understand how small packets of data move through a LoRaWAN network, see dashboards in context, and discuss which signals matter for facilities, farms, cities, utilities, and campuses.
Product exploration
Visitors can compare environmental sensors, utility meters, trackers, gateways, and dashboard views before deciding which hardware fits a use case.
Prototype support
Students and builders can use Packetworx guidance to define a problem, select sensors, decode payloads, and turn a prototype into a pilot plan.
Community learning
The Hub supports talks, campus visits, hackathons, thesis consultations, workshops, and ecosystem events that help demystify IoT.
School visits and learning pathways.
Packetworx articles and local collateral show the Hub being used as an experiential learning venue for schools and young innovators. Public stories mention visits and programs involving universities such as the University of the East, Jose Rizal University, ICCT, Pamantasan ng Cabuyao, and Catanduanes State University, along with campus-tour and workshop activities.
