Schimberg and Berlin, 19 September 2024 - Alpha-Omega Technology GmbH & Co. KG operates iot-shop the largest online shop for LPWAN solutions in Europe and supplies IoT users around the world. Over 400,000 IoT products from more than 80 suppliers have been delivered to over 50 countries since 2017. The experts for IoT solutions have already supported over 5,000 companies and municipalities in the implementation of IoT projects. With iot-market.eu the company from Thuringia is nowpresenting an information platform that helps companies, local authorities and experts to discover and implement innovative IoT solutions for themselves. From 19 September 2024, iot-market will provide visitors with valuable expert knowledge such as specialist resources and current market trends. In addition, individual IoT specialists from the high-calibre partner network comprising more than 75 providers will be presenting themselves. These include IoT platforms such as Datacake or Akenza for the further processing and visualisation of the collected data. After all, choosing the right IoT platform is often crucial to the success of a project. The iot-market is intended to do more than just provide information: The initiators want to build bridges between theory and practice and visualise the innovative power that lies in many IoT projects. Users of the iot-shop are therefore invited to present their own projects. This gives them visibility in specialist circles for their success stories and other visitors to the platform benefit from tried-and-tested solutions.

New iot-market platform supports users and provides a platform for successfully realised IoT projects
The aim of the platform is to make the added value of already realised IoT projects publicly visible. To this end, project managers submit their success stories via a form on the website. The operators check the content for completeness and publish it promptly. The project managers become visible as experts in the IoT community, giving them the opportunity to make valuable contacts for their professional network. One example is the climate monitoring of the Evangelical Church of Westphalia. LoRaWAN sensors continuously measure the temperature and humidity in the buildings with the aim of saving energy and protecting church buildings or parish halls.

The Managing Director of Alpha-Omega Technology, Jan Bose, comments: ‘We have seen in numerous international customer projects how diverse and innovative IoT technologies can be used. We definitely want to make this incredible innovative power visible. The iot-market offers an ideal platform for this. We have supported many projects over the years and have realised that the players often need support in selecting and implementing IoT technologies. With our new platform, we want to pool expertise and make it accessible to everyone, promote dialogue between experts and users and drive forward the digital transformation.’
Customised solutions for companies and municipalities
The platform offers companies and local authorities their own customised areas, as they have very different needs and the specific solutions differ greatly. Companies, for example, can use IoT to implement supply chain management and thus monitor goods and vehicles logistically. Municipal organisations such as public utilities have often already established a network and are currently on the lookout for further IoT solutions that increase added value. And for local authorities themselves, solutions such as IoT weather stations or smart lighting systems for areas such as Smart CityandGreen City are of interest. Visitors to the iot-market can find out about the benefits of IoT technologies, learn how to set up a secure infrastructure and find suitable solutions for their respective areas of application. One example is „Ortsbeleuchtung“ for municipalities. With this solution, the ripple control technology for controlling street lighting can be converted to a LoRaWAN-based IoT.

Understanding IoT as an opportunity
Anyone who is interested in IoT solutions but has never dealt with them before will find easy-to-understand introductions to the various technologies such as Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN), Narrowband-IoT (NB-IoT), Mioty or Wireless M-BUS in the ‘Technology’ section and will learn a lot about their characteristics, advantages, limitations and suitable use cases.

Managing Director Jan Bose summarises: ‘As pioneers in the IoT scene, we want to use the new iot-market.eu platform to help local authorities, municipal utilities, engineering companies and other innovative small and large companies, as well as privately organised associations that want to make progress in the field of digitalisation, to see IoT as an opportunity to optimise their processes. For example, by reducing costs and protecting the environment through energy savings.’
The iot-market and increasing internationalisation are at the heart of Alpha-Omega Technology's next phase of growth: ‘To make our global presence even clearer, we have optimisedour brand from www.iot-shop.de to the simple iot-shop. We continue to recognise enormous potential in the IoT market and are excited about the year 2025 with many innovative ideas,’ says Jan Bose, looking to the future.
