iLOQ is heading for the US market in Fall 2022. The company will set up its first US office on the east coast and will focus on two market segments in the country: residential buildings, such as apartment blocks, and critical infrastructure.
“The strong growth of large cities in the US is creating demand for smart technologies on the residential side,” said Joni Lampinen, general manager of US operations. “On the infrastructure side, regulatory changes are supporting the same trend, as the government’s FICAM guidelines, which support architecture, emphasize digital and automated access management and security, for example. However, the country is still lagging behind Finland, for example, in smart locking solutions.”
iLOQ currently has operations in 13 different countries.
