Context
After several years of R&D and market development (and it takes always more time than expected, especially in B2B area!), Intellinium is now ready to mass produce its solution, in particular the add-on attached to any safety or hiking shoes. Thanks to its first industrial customers, Intellinium has developed a strong know-how and technical & functional expertise based on a common software/hardware platform. As we are getting new customers on-board and following end-users feedback on our version 2, we need to strengthen our R&D team to accelerate our growth, release version 3 (expected Q1 2019) and increase our technical presence on the market.
