‘’VANTIQ truly accelerates digital transformation with an agile, rapid development platform for event-driven applications and provides the ‘enterprise nervous system’ that connects your devices, systems, and people together in real time. I welcome the opportunity to join Marty's team and bring the benefits of VANTIQ to the EMEA region," says Christian Hiller.

VANTIQ delivers a disruptive cloud solution, able to support and accelerate large digital transformation projects, by encouraging the emergence of real-time and event-driven enterprise applications with advanced human-machine collaboration. To achieve this, the VANTIQ platform relies on innovative "low-code" and "reactive programming" concepts and on a seamless integration of IoT, mobile, social networks, artificial intelligence and augmented reality.

With VANTIQ, companies are able to leverage their existing IT skills and focus on the business logic rather than infrastructure and new technology. Rather than attempting to automate everything, developers can use powerful human-machine collaboration patterns to choreograph the interaction between systems and people, providing the human touch and creativity where systems fail or fall short. With VANTIQ, companies can leverage their existing skills and focus on business logic rather than infrastructure and technology dependencies.
