Connectivity provider Sigfox has announced a global partnership with Alizent, the Asset Interactive Company, to help maximise the benefits of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) to industries across all sectors.
The two partners see Industry 4.0 as one of the main growth paths driving the development of IoT and will combine their respective technologies and capabilities to provide monitoring and tracking solutions of industrial assets on a global basis.
By complementing other types of technologies that Alizent currently offers to its customers such as 3G/4G or RFID, Sigfox will enable digital interactions with millions of industrial assets and hundreds of plants throughout the world, as well as real-time visibility on operations.
The two partners believe that combining Sigfox’s connectivity with Alizent’s knowledge of industrial customers will bring a unique value proposal to verticals such as oil and gas, primary metals, manufacturing, healthcare, food and beverage, agriculture, chemical and pharmaceuticals.
