ABOUT HALTIAN RESEARCH

Driving IoT Innovation Through Research Collaborations and Ecosystems

Today, IoT technology is at its rapid development stage. It’s already possible to notice that its expansion is fast and large-scale, as predicted by Gartner. For many, this evolution comes with novel and unforeseen opportunities and threats. Our goal is to predict these opportunities and to mitigate the risks instead. The best way to do it is to be where the action is – at the heart of knowledge development.

Our success philosophy is in the creation of new products and services that meet not only present, but also future demands of our customers. Research enables us to thrive at the intersection of incremental, modular and architectural innovation – improving costs and features, technology components or even the whole architecture of products in our offering and any related services. This is what enables us to create and deliver added value to our customers in everything we do and to sustain the competitive edge in developing connected solutions for businesses across domains.
