Connectivity Ecosystem Partnership

Our reason

The Challenge: Common Perceptions Despite traction of connected devices from early technology adopters, the level of penetration of connectivity in households and small buildings is still very low.

Connectivity is still perceived to be lacking in simplicity, reliability and efficiency. The belief is that interoperability is too complex and lacks post-sales and installation support. Read the brochure
The Solution: A Unique Partnership We believe now is the time to partner together to accelerate on connectivity. Our goal is to promote connectivity and to create value for our customers.

This will require close collaboration with fellow application leaders to develop solutions that work seamlessly together. We aim to attract new partners who share our vision to join us in the Connectivity Ecosystem. Learn more about our Partners

Seamless and Simple Integration By aligning our connectivity and technology strategies, we ensure the development of an open ecosystem, making our products seamlessly interoperable at the controller level — or at the cloud level through an application programming interface (API).
Qualified Use Cases Connectivity only makes sense if our value propositions meet our customer expectations. This is why we are engaged with customers and partners, reviewing and co-developing customised solutions for selected segments.

We have tested, validated and documented solutions that our expert installers and system integrators are trained on and ready to support.
