XKI focuses on the integration of the Internet-of-Things, Blockchain and Machine Learning.

Kepware Technologies, established in 1995, is a software development company headquartered in Portland, Maine. Kepware develops software solutions for the Industrial Automation Industry that help bridge the communication gap between diverse hardware and software applications. Their products enable informed decision-making from the shop floor to the top floor by providing consistent, reliable data across the enterprise. Kepware only delivers industrial-strength solutions that are designed, tested, and certified to meet the demands of industrial automation applications. They will not release a product until it has successfully passed all stages of our rigorous quality control process. They build, sell, and support the global market from our Portland, Maine headquarters to ensure the highest-quality output.

UniquID built a Blockchain SaaS to enable encrypted and secure communication between the 11billion IOT devices around the world. They've customers among some of the largest companies in the connected-vehicles, networking and healthcare space and is currently operating in stealth mode.

Real-Time Innovations (RTI) is the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) connectivity company. The RTI Connext® databus is a software framework that shares information in real time, making applications work together as one, integrated system. It connects across field, fog and cloud. Its reliability, security, performance and scalability are proven in the most demanding industrial systems. Deployed systems include medical devices and imaging; wind, hydro and solar power; autonomous planes, trains and cars; traffic control; Oil and Gas; robotics, ships and defense. RTI is the largest vendor of products based on the Object Management Group (OMG) Data Distribution Service™ (DDS) standard. RTI is privately held and headquartered in Sunnyvale, California.

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is an evolution of existing technologies that enables end users to improve processes, drive productivity, and maintain an edge in our increasingly competitive global economy. The IIoT requires technology that can solve the Interoperability challenges of device connectivity by reliably and securely delivering data across the public domain at a much larger scale than previously thought possible. Interoperability is currently the greatest challenge facing the Internet of Things (IoT), and may be the missing link to implementing and realizing the value of many IIoT deployments. Kepware’s industry-leading communications platform, KEPServerEX, delivers the most complete solution for device-to-cloud Interoperability. KEPServerEX provides a single integrated platform for collecting, aggregating, and providing secure access to your industrial operations data. KEPServerEX is evolving with the IIoT to support platform independence and new methods of data access—including support for web-based technologies and publish/subscribe messaging protocols. Kepware is developing these solutions to help the IIoT deliver on its promise of improved operational efficiency through applications like preventative maintenance, energy monitoring, product lifecycle insights, and global production Tracking.

The UniquID protocol enables devices to self-generate identities, enforces security through timestamps and Digital Signatures circulated in the network, and allows deices to communicate without a trusted third party or a single point of failure. The UniquID protocol enables scalable and flexible deivce networking without the use of trusted third parties.

-Self generated identities:To identify devices, UniquID applies PGP and Web of Trust principles instead of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI)

-Distributed ledger of smart contracts: While human Trust depends on principles of free will and relationships, devices act following deterministic rules. The UniquID protocol defines these deterministic machine-to-machine relationships using Smart Contracts on Blockchain.

-A peer to peer network of devise: UniquID protocol is designed to create peer to peer relationships between devices. Using the mentioned trustless principles, secure machine-to-machines interactions are possible without the need of a trusted server, service company or authority.
