Alicia Asin: New Internet of Things Trends Inspired by Libelium
Alicia Asin was the kind of youngster who could dabble in everything, from athletics to computers to the arts. She was committed to launching her own company even while she studied for a degree in computer engineering at college. She and her partner, David Gascon, started their own company to use technology for good. Over the course of 13 years, Alicia Asin has gone from risk taker to CEO of Libelium IoT Technology, a solution provider that has established itself as a leader in its field and now serves clients in more than 120 countries. There were challenges along the way, but she was determined to overcome them.
The Beginning
Alicia and David chose to start their business in the modern era of social networks and smartphone applications. Although hardware development presented certain challenges, the team remained committed to developing useful products. Because of their status as forerunners in the field of “WSN” (wireless sensor networks), they realized they were on the verge of a technological watershed. Waspmote is the platform they intended to build, and it would have housed over 120 sensors. It can send data to any cloud service on the Internet, regardless of the protocol used to send the data. However, they also recognized that there are several possible Internet of Things applications across all industries, making selection difficult. Waspmote was founded in 2009 when the company’s founders sought to diversify their product line by developing technologies for uses as varied as “smart management of water supply,” “improvement of agricultural production,” “environmental control of air and noise in cities,” “intelligent parking systems,” etc. They had to overcome regulatory and financial hurdles as well, but in the end they were successful because they understood that they needed to charge for their services and not rely on grants or investors. Their fantastic adventure had finally started.
Goods and Services
Libelium Iot Technology is an industry-leading developer of technological solutions with the goal of enhancing human well-being and business viability. Agriculture, parking, urban surveillance, waste management, the environment, and security & emergencies are just a few of the areas where Libelium’s solutions may be put to use. The firm has no regional or national preferences in its product offerings, since it serves all markets globally. Using any wireless communication protocol, sensors built on Libelium’s tech platform may measure any parameter and upload the results to any number of cloud storage services. Libelium’s wide selection of Internet of Things (IoT) devices are built on cutting-edge research and innovative concepts, and they’re designed to help you keep pace with the rapidly evolving technological landscape.
The Crucial Element
Over time, Libelium has grown from a fledgling business to an industry powerhouse. They expanded because they were determined to keep up with the times and develop a fresh plan of attack. They started as a hardware maker but have now evolved into a full-service IoT project consultant. Libelium’s success may be attributed to the interoperability of their wireless sensor platform, which has allowed them to build a partner ecosystem consisting of more than a hundred organizations.
Libelium has been an innovator in the Internet of Things (IoT) and the digital world, always looking forward to the next technological step. One remarkable aspect of Libelium’s Smart Sensor systems is their adaptability; they may be used for everything from city surveillance to precision agriculture. In addition, Libelium has developed an unprecedented number of collaboration initiatives with the goal of better managing its interaction with the ecosystem. Libelium has grown from a startup to a small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) in only 13 years. The company now has 5 million in annual invoicing, 50 employees, and 120 international markets. They are committed to providing goods and services with high added value throughout the full Internet of Things (IoT) value chain.
The Supreme Intellect
Alicia’s life is heavily influenced by athletics, and she has taken lessons like sacrifice and everyday consistency from her athletic endeavors into the business world. She rows at a very competitive level since she enjoys athletics so much. Before beginning her career as an entrepreneur, she was a dedicated athlete.
As the head of Libelium’s operations, she has a dual internal and external duty. She represents Libelium out in the world. “We have a great brand image, and, in that sense, my presence is in great demand to offer conferences and talks about IoT technology and my experience as an entrepreneur”, Alicia explains. Specifically, she is responsible for developing the company’s strategy, selecting the most qualified individuals to implement that goal, and providing them with the tools they need to succeed. “As CEO, I am aware of the weight of being the company’s final decision maker. She continues, “I don’t have someone to bring up certain matters to, and I know that choices finish in my figure, for better or worse.
The Drive Behind It
The desire to make a difference with their technology is a driving force for the team at Libelium. They put in long hours improving their technology offerings with the goal of addressing the most pressing problems that society faces today. They work tirelessly to ensure that everyone has access to healthcare and that cities can function without depleting natural resources or causing climate change. Alicia is motivated to break the glass ceiling and serve as an inspiration to other women who would want to make a difference in the technological world but don’t have any role models to look up to.
The View from the Future
When it comes to expanding internationally, Libelium has two main goals in mind: first, to expand, and second, to contribute to the development of the Internet of Things (IoT) industry. With the goal of making businesses more competitive and cutting costs, IoT applications are poised to flood the market for everyday needs, and their growth into the huge education sector is imminent. Libelium’s ultimate goal with every new feature is to provide users an all-in-one package of hardware, software, and analyzed data for their chosen application. Libelium is pushing forward with a focused strategy for expansion because it believes this is the only way to bring about the massive investment and groundbreaking outcomes predicted by the technological disruption.
Young engineer and business owner Alicia Asin is inspired by a desire to establish herself as a role model for women everywhere in the technological arena. She calls herself a “rara avis” since she was born into a society that demands more equality and is increasingly dominated by technology. She thinks women need to assume more responsibility in executive roles if they want to see wage parity. Alicia Asin and her team are ready to go on a wonderful adventure of innovation, impact, and inspiration with the aim of leaving a legacy of IoT that will ultimately lead to better democracy and larger economics.
