Four sectors, one connected playground.
Our partners span the length of an industrial value chain: subcontract manufacturing, vehicle assembly and importing, road haulage, warehousing, refining, data centres and construction. A technology proven at one point on that chain can usually be tested at several others.
Automotive
Partner operations cover assembly, importing, distribution, car carriers, fleets and after-sales — so a vehicle technology can be tested at whichever point of that chain it actually belongs.
Logistics
Road haulage, cargo terminals, logistics centres, warehousing and last-mile delivery operate daily across the partner group, which makes them unusually testable environments.
Industry 4.0
Production lines, refineries and data centres carry a hard constraint: they cannot be paused for an experiment. POCs are designed around that.
Energy
The partner group produces, stores, distributes and consumes energy at industrial scale, including hydrogen production capacity of up to 8 tons per hour.

Defense and space technology are emerging domains for us, currently explored through dedicated sessions with partner companies rather than through a completed POC track.
A solution proven in one industry rarely stays in one industry.
A sensing method validated on a truck fleet often applies to a warehouse or a production line. We look for that second and third application deliberately. Read how the POC method works.
