Testbeds
Accelerating Industrial IoT Adoption Via Real-World Tests
The IIC Testbed program is one of the most popular and highest-value of our membership initiatives. A Testbed is a controlled experimentation platform, conforming to an IIC reference architecture, where solutions can be deployed and tested in an environment that replicates real-world conditions. The goal of each Testbed is to create growth opportunities for new products, services, or business development.
