Context
Connected objects were multiplying faster than the software to manage them. Lizenn was founded in Brittany to build an IoT platform for that gap – and to find out whether the idea could carry a company.
What I did
- Co-founder and technical lead: product definition, architecture and development of the IoT platform, on an Erlang stack.
- IoT software engineering: device connectivity, data collection, and the service layer above it.
- Pitched and defended the project in innovation programmes and competitions.
Outcome
- OW2 Best Project Award, Innovation category.
- EIT ICT Labs Idea Challenge finalist, Internet of Things category.
A first-hand run through the whole path from idea to product to market – and the experience that fed everything I have done on innovation since.
