Ubuntu IoT Day in Singapore – Unlock compliant and scalable innovation in edge AI


Singapore | May 27, 2025 | Full-day event

How do you build robust, performant edge AI infrastructure? This is the question organizations are asking themselves when looking to capitalize on the opportunity of edge AI.

Ubuntu IoT Day is your opportunity to find out – and it’s coming to Singapore! Join us on May 27 to discover how Canonical and our IoT partners are powering innovation in edge computing, AI, and secure IoT at scale.

Wondering what to expect? Here’s a quick rundown:

  • 150+ attendees from Southeast Asia’s embedded and industrial tech community
  • Technical sessions, live demos, and real-world use cases
  • Expert speakers and partner showcases
  • The latest in regulation-ready open source solutions for IoT and Edge AI

This full-day event brings together system integrators, hardware manufacturers, and software architects to explore the latest advancements in embedded Linux, edge computing, and security.

Save your seat

Join us in shaping the future of edge AI with Ubuntu 

Open source is already at the heart of AI – a 2025 report by McKinsey revealed that, across the board, more than half of organizations are already using open source AI tooling. 

But why stop at tooling? As AI applications move closer to the edge, businesses need powerful, secure, and reliable platforms to stay ahead. Open source software provides you with the latest innovations, with the flexibility and control required to be both fast-moving and compliant. Ubuntu provides all the benefits of the open source ecosystem, wrapped up in enterprise-grade support. 

So what does this look like in practice? Ubuntu IoT Day is your opportunity to engage with Canonical engineers, explore real-world use cases, and connect with partners building the next generation of smart, compliant devices.

We’ll be covering key topics like:

  • Implementing edge AI at scale with open-source solutions
  • Accelerating time-to-market with certified hardware and Ubuntu Core
  • Navigating security regulations (CRA, NIS2, IEC 62443)
  • Managing device fleets with real-time monitoring and long-term support

Reach CRA cybersecurity compliance 

During the event, we will be available to help you navigate the requirements of the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and ensure your Ubuntu-based devices meet compliance standards. As the CRA introduces new cybersecurity regulations impacting device design, deployment, and maintenance – from secure software development to long-term vulnerability management – understanding these changes is crucial to maintaining market access. 

Join us to learn how to:

  • Unlock additional security updates, hardening profiles, and get up to 10 years of security maintenance with Ubuntu Pro for Devices, our enterprise subscription.
  • Harness Landscape, Canonical’s systems management tool, to monitor fleets and track vulnerabilities in real-time.
  • Harden your Ubuntu-based devices by implementing security best practices, such as kernel hardening, access controls, and secure update mechanisms.
  • Explore how Ubuntu Core brings the benefits of Ubuntu to embedded devices through a minimal, strictly containerized architecture.

For those looking for complete security and industrial-grade deployments, Ubuntu Core is a reliable embedded Linux OS for the Internet of Things (IoT), devices, and edge systems. It encapsulates every system component, along with the system itself, into a set of containers. These containers operate with strict kernel-enforced confinement, ensuring security and stability. Ubuntu Core supports reliable over-the-air updates, minimizing disruptions. Additionally, failsafe rollbacks provide a safety net, making it ideal for intelligent edge and IoT applications.

Experience innovation first-hand from our partners 

Ubuntu is at the heart of a well-established hardware ecosystem. We work directly with silicon vendors and ODMs to certify their devices, ensuring that innovators like you get the full, performant Ubuntu experience, out of the box. 

 But don’t just take our word for it. Join us at Ubuntu IoT Day and learn how Canonical works closely with partners to deliver devices that are optimized for performance, security, and regulatory compliance — ready for real-world deployment.

At the event, you’ll be able to:

  • Learn how Canonical’s IoT program bridges the gap from silicon vendors, ODMs to end customers and accelerate your IoT development
  • See live demos on devices running Ubuntu from Aaeon, Adlink, Advantech, ASUS IoT, Everfocus and Qualcomm.
  • Join key sessions covering topics such as AI and robotics development from Mediatek, ARM, Aaeon, Advantech and more.

Meet our silicon and ODM partners who are shaping the future of industrial AI
