Building TinyML Pipelines Training in Madrid, Spain

The Building TinyML Pipelines Training is a hands-on, practical program focused on designing, training, deploying, and operating machine learning models on ultra-low-power, resource-constrained devices such as microcontrollers and edge sensors.

Participants will learn how to build end-to-end TinyML pipelines—from data collection and model training to optimization, deployment, and lifecycle management—enabling real-time intelligence at the edge for IoT, industrial, wearable, and embedded systems.
