About Us
Bridging Innovation and Industry from London to Padova – Delivering Zero-Complexity IoT Solutions Worldwide
Our Philosophy
We believe operational data should be reliable, sovereign, and ready to use—without compromising security or locking you into a single vendor's ecosystem. That's why we built Altior as a telecom-grade foundation that connects any device, any network, and any enterprise platform. We treat data infrastructure the way telecoms treat their networks: always on, independently verifiable, and engineered for the long term. We're founder-led and partnership-focused. We don't compete with hardware manufacturers or analytics providers—we work with them, creating a standardised data layer that lets each partner do what they do best. Our model is simple: transparent pricing, shared reliability, and collaboration built on measurable performance. We operate under ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 standards because quality and security aren't optional. And we're committed to data sovereignty—your infrastructure, your control, your compliance—without dependence on hyperscaler clouds. Operational technology deserves the same reliability we expect from critical infrastructure. That's what we deliver.
