The Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming our industries. However, nearly 75% of IoT projects fail to achieve their objectives.
Why? Poor definition of needs, inappropriate technological choices, or poorly aligned partners.
At Sido 2025, the conference ‘Successful IoT projects: a review of best practices’ brought together several industry experts, including Altyor, to share the keys to successful, sustainable and high-performance IoT projects.
The foundations of a successful IoT project
It all starts with a simple question: why connect?
Before thinking about technology, you need to clearly define the use case. What do you want to measure, improve or automate? Without a clear vision, you end up with an expensive gadget.
Next comes the choice of technology. Each environment imposes its own constraints: indoor, outdoor, underground, extreme industrial environments.
Success depends on choosing the right protocol, the right materials and a suitable architecture.
To ensure the success of your IoT project, you must also integrate cybersecurity from the design stage onwards.
The ISO/EN 18031 standard now imposes strict requirements. Securing data, the network and the end user is no longer an option: it is an obligation.
And to orchestrate all this? You need an experienced industrial partner.
At Altyor, we support companies from the initial idea to the finished product.
Our teams are experts in every stage of the process: design, prototyping, manufacturing, compliance and industrialisation.
Turnkey support to transform an idea into industrial success.
‘At Altyor, we take IoT projects through every stage of maturity, right up to mass production.’
Eco-design and sustainability: a competitive advantage
The market is changing. Companies are no longer just looking for performance: they want responsible and sustainable products.
The IoT is no exception to this transformation.
Altyor has made this a strategic pillar.
For more than 15 years, the company has been integrating circular economy principles into its production processes.
Each product is designed to be durable, repairable and recyclable.
Today, 87% of the plastic used comes from 100% recycled materials.
This approach is part of a long-term strategy, confirmed by the company’s status as a mission-driven company, obtained in 2023.
It is possible to reconcile industrialization and environmental responsibility.
Eco-design is not just a CSR argument.
It is also a major commercial asset for a successful IoT project.
Customers, investors and public contractors now demand products with a low carbon footprint.
Choosing a committed partner means anticipating future standards and enhancing your brand.

How to successfully industrialize your connected object?
Industrialization is a key stage in the development and production of an electronic product. In this guide, our experts have put together 16 key points to help you understand what’s at stake in this phase.
From vision to success: the keys to taking action
The experts gathered at this conference at Sido 2025 were unanimous: to make an IoT project a success, you need to combine strategy, method and agility.
Here are the four key levers to remember:
- Have a clear strategic vision.
Define measurable objectives from the outset. Plan for ROI. - Build a robust business model.
The IoT must create value, not just data. - Integrate security and compliance.
Regulations change quickly: it is best to anticipate. - Work with a comprehensive partner.
From design to production, every step counts.
Success also depends on people.
An IoT project requires multiple areas of expertise: electronics, connectivity, mechanics, regulations, etc.
A good partner is one who knows how to bring these worlds together to deliver a reliable, secure and sustainable product.
Altyor plays this role of integrator and industrial conductor.
Our strength: a comprehensive view of the project and an integrated eco-responsible approach.
We design, manufacture and support our customers towards a safer, greener and more efficient IoT.
