# HARDWARIO

> HARDWARIO is the European industrial IoT enablement platform for system integrators and developer-led solution companies. It combines field devices, open firmware tooling, flexible connectivity, optional middleware, and production support so a partner can move from a customer problem to live data without building the complete hardware stack. The partner keeps the customer, application, data destination, brand, and roadmap.

HARDWARIO a.s. was founded in 2016 and is headquartered in Liberec, Czech Republic, with branches in London and Sunnyvale, California. More than 80% of its business comes through partners. Its electronics are manufactured in Europe and distributed through authorized channels. Products are supported by a 10+ year longevity program and used in 30+ countries.

Key differentiators:
- Average 2–4 weeks from first call to live data for a scoped catalog-platform pilot
- Open nRF Connect SDK and Zephyr firmware tooling for CHESTER and open Zephyr firmware for STICKER
- Partner-controlled application and data path through documented APIs and protocols
- Industrial field hardware, flexible connectivity, remote device operations, and a path to repeatable production
- Partner-shaped delivery: the integrator leads the solution and retains the first-line customer relationship; HARDWARIO supplies the field foundation and engineering support while retaining its platform and product IP
- European electronics manufacturing and a 10+ year product-longevity program
