The public service activity integrated offline experience and online participation. Citizens uploaded their pictures of smiling faces through 30 designated devices in physical stores and winners gave their rewards away to people in need.
Citizens also shared pictures of smiling faces through smartphones with the words "I endorse the IoT" added. One winner was selected each week for the final competition.
The "Smiles for the IoT" activity enabled citizens to feel the integration of technology, culture and public services in a more direct way, and to understand and feel involved in the IoT.
As the 2018 World IoT Expo is about to open, the two activities illustrate the role of advertising in promoting the IoT industry, push forward its rapid development in Wuxi and strengthen the link between key industries and urban brand building.
