Dutch Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) specialist TWTG has joined the LoRa Alliance, an open, non-profit association set up to support and promote the global adoption of the LoRaWAN networking protocol.
The LoRa Alliance has become one of the largest and fastest-growing alliances in the technology sector with members working collaboratively as a think tank and education body. Becoming a LoRa Alliance member demonstrates TWTG’s position in the market as a device manufacturer, and opens the door for the introduction of their new SolidRed Suite, an IoT platform with multiple device applications, due to launch in the coming months.
TWTG is keen to bring its unique perspective on how to implement LoRaWAN solutions for industrial and petrochemical customers, notoriously suspicious of new technologies. John Tillema, co-founder and CTO at TWTG, says that joining the Alliance ‘feels like the next natural step in TWTG’s trajectory.’
Donna Moore, CEO and chairwoman of the LoRa Alliance says: ‘It is exciting to see how a dynamic and agile scale-up is successfully using LoRaWAN to bring new solutions to large industrial clients that meet the stringent conditions of IECEx certifications. The benefits of LoRaWAN for industrial IoT applications are many: low cost, long range, secure, business model flexibility, and easy to deploy and scale, all with a proven return on investment. I look forward to TWTG’s contributions to the alliance as industrial IoT is one of the fastest growing markets for LoRaWAN and TWTG’s expertise will contribute greatly to our work.’
