LORIOT and GREATECH Partner to Accelerate Global Hybrid LPWAN Infrastructure and Solutions

The strategic alliance combines market-leading network management with specialized hardware expertise to deliver versatile, dual-technology ecosystems for complex industrial and mobile applications.

LORIOT AG and GREATECH GmbH have entered a strategic partnership aimed at removing the complexity from international, heavy-duty industrial IoT deployments. By aligning GREATECH’s precision hardware engineering with LORIOT’s robust Network Management System, the two companies are providing a clear, frictionless path from physical device deployment to secure data delivery.

The German based manufacturer manages a robust international distribution network for its modules exporting widely across the European Union, South Africa, Argentina, and Brazil. Under this framework, LORIOT will provide the secure network management layer and related cloud services, while GREATECH delivers specialized, field-proven hardware engineering.

A core technical focus of the partnership is its forward-looking, hybrid network strategy. By combining both LoRaWAN® and mioty® solution capabilities, the partners offer an adaptable ecosystem capable of handling high device density, deep building penetration, and ultimate network redundancy. This dual-protocol flexibility ensures that industrial operations remain connected regardless of environmental or geographical constraints.

“With IIoT being a core vertical for LORIOT, we know that successful industrial projects must rely on a frictionless relationship between the physical device and the network management system,” said Alan Rae, Chief Sales Officer at LORIOT. “Teaming up with GREATECH allows us to offer our clients access to the exceptional hardware and engineering capabilities required for these complex deployments.”

To coincide with the launch of this partnership, GREATECH is also introducing its brand-new mioty® base station to the market. Through close technical alignment, the two teams have ensured seamless out-of-the-box compatibility between this new hardware and LORIOT’s network management software, allowing operators to deploy reliable mioty networks with minimal setup friction and full confidence in the system's interoperability.

“Greatech GmbH's years of experience in the precision manufacture of hardware for industrial and non-industrial IoT systems, manufactured in Germany, combined with LORIOT’s specialisation in large-scale, stable and secure network management systems for the IoT, results in an effective combination for the integration and deployment of scalable LPWAN networks, from retrofitting to complete new builds.” said Peter Grundig, the CEO and founder of Greatech.

Looking to the future, the collaboration lays the groundwork for deep, project-specific co-innovation. LORIOT intends to leverage GREATECH’s specialized engineering agility to address custom hardware demands worldwide, matching GREATECH's extensive product portfolio with complex enterprise client requirements.

Moving forward, both companies plan to showcase the practical applications of this hybrid approach through joint marketing initiatives, including deep-dive technical webinars, guest blogs, and an active presence at upcoming industry events like the IoT Sparks conference.
