IxorTalk
IoT provides new possibilities for end-users by adding intelligence in existing and new solutions. To enable these possibilities, our IoT projects focus on all challenges including hardware, connectivity, data insights, service design and user experiences. IoT is a worldwide technology trend, but is often mistaken as a goal itself. We believe IoT only works as means to an end, for which we actively create value for the business case of our customers. Providing return-on-investment or enabling digital transformation is the basis. Most challenges companies face when implementing an IoT strategy are shared, managing assets, users, rights, monitoring, etc. By open-sourcing our IoT platform we provide a deploy-anywhere toolbox. This way our customers only invest in strategic product development. IxorTalk is working together for the Flemish, Brussels and local governments to provide smart city solutions, mainly in smart mobility.

FIWARE
Bringing de-facto standards and open source to create a sustainable market of interoperable and portable smart cities solutions. Our reference architecture for Smart Cities breaks vertical silos, building a context info management layer that provides a holistic picture of what is going on in the city. By making city data public and merging data from multiple verticals, city-level governance systems can be enhanced. Due to “de-facto” standard information models there are no costs of adaptation to achieve full interoperability among many different systems in the city. This, in turn, enables the portability of systems across sectors and cities. Third-party solution providers can benefit from right-time open data published by the city and made available through standard APIs. They can sell their solutions to cities across the world, targeting a larger market and boosting businesses.
