Five Minutes With… Larry Wall, CEO, Eurotech

October 28, 2015

Eurotech designs the building blocks for Industrial IoT systems. You've heard that one before. They're one of many (emphasis on "many") companies in this arena. In this Five Minutes With…segment, I asked Eurotech's CEO Larry Wall how he can stand out amongst the competition, which is stiff and getting stiffer.

His response has to do with a system-level approach that includes all the software. More precisely, it's where software meets firmware meets operating system meets sensor and so on. He claims that's their strength, and what makes his company stand out.

The other aspect Wall stressed was the need to future-proof, and the ability to be in the game for the long haul, and not just to make some quick money and get out. I admit that last part was a bit of fresh air.
