To build solutions that enable Smart Factories to become reality by deploying open standards, independence, and collaboration.
Cybus is positioning itself at the centre of the fourth industrial revolution by building IoT (Internet of Things) architecture to enable the digitization of industrial manufacturing. The company’s flagship offering, Cybus Connectware, is designed to accelerate companies’ transitions from traditional factories to smart factories.
Industry 4.0’s emergence in the last few years has cast a spotlight on the concept of The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) – both in terms of opportunities and obstacles. While IoT-enabled automation leads to improved productivity and better safety, there’s still a pressing need for high standard, industry-specific IoT solutions. It’s this bridge that Cybus is trying to gap.
That one of its main investors is PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) is telling, as the multinational offers smart factory deployment services itself. While there’s little to suggest an imminent acquisition, Cybus may well be able to tap into PwC’s global customer network, while PwC will be able to leverage the startups industry expertise and tech solutions.
