Melita.io and Realinnova Bring Smart, Scalable IoT Solutions to Spain

Melita.io, a European provider of advanced IoT connectivity solutions, has teamed up with Realinnova, a Spanish specialist in digital transformation, to revolutionise how businesses in Spain use the Internet of Things (IoT).

This strategic partnership, officially unveiled at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, is designed to accelerate innovation and increase operational efficiency across key sectors, including healthcare, hospitality, logistics and smart cities. At the core of this collaboration is a shared vision enabling Spanish businesses to leverage tailor-made IoT technologies that are secure, scalable and built to address real-world challenges. melita.io brings to the table its robust network infrastructure offering 2G, 3G, LTE, 5G and NB-IoT connectivity, while Realinnova delivers on-the-ground expertise in digital transformation.

Practical Solutions Transforming Industries

The partnership is already making a tangible impact. Spanish organisations are utilising melita.io’s connectivity in practical, powerful ways, from enhancing healthcare for the elderly to broadcasting major cultural events. Two standout examples, i4life and PTV Telecom, demonstrate the diverse and practical ways in which smart technology is being adopted to meet the needs of both people and industries.

i4life: Human-Centred Technology That Changes Lives

i4life is a remarkable spin-off from the University of Oviedo that designs technology with a deeply human purpose—improving the quality of life, especially for those with chronic health conditions. With a clear focus on people, particularly Parkinson’s patients and elderly residents in rural areas, i4life exemplifies how thoughtful, accessible innovation can drive health and wellbeing.

One of its standout products, the i4Park tool, helps monitor the progression of Parkinson’s disease. This technology allows for more precise tracking and intervention, improving patient outcomes and offering healthcare providers vital insights. i4life also tackles communication gaps between families and care centres through its Family Platform. This tool has already reduced inbound calls to care facilities by 95%, creating a smoother experience for everyone involved.

Then there’s Silver Digi, a solution tailored to rural seniors. It enables them to stay connected and supported through IoT-powered devices. It’s a digital bridge to better living, especially in communities where access to care can be limited.

One of i4life’s most innovative creations is the Pauto® Basic Cane, a smart walking cane that assists people with Parkinson’s in overcoming gait block, one of the disease’s most debilitating symptoms. It combines laser projections (a green line and red dot), vibrations and ergonomic design to help users regain confidence in their steps, prevent falls and navigate safely. This unique combination of features sets it apart as a truly groundbreaking solution.

Each of these technologies is made possible through the reliable, low-latency connectivity delivered by melita.io. This connectivity is not just a feature but a crucial component that ensures these IoT-enabled tools are not only practical but also life-saving.

PTV Telecom: Connecting Tradition with Technology

While i4life is focused on health, PTV Telecom demonstrates how melita.io’s IoT solutions can enhance cultural and media experiences.

PTV Telecom uses melita.io’s connectivity to broadcast live Holy Week processions across various cities in the Andalucía region. These broadcasts are made possible by camera backpacks equipped with multi-operator roaming SIMs provided by melita.io.

Because the Holy Week processions span multiple urban centres across Andalucía, melita.io’s multi-operator roaming SIMs automatically switch to the strongest and fastest mobile networks among all major network operators to guarantee uninterrupted IoT connectivity and exceptional live video streaming quality. With built-in failover capabilities, if one network experiences disruption, another network instantly takes over, ensuring a seamless broadcast. This reliable, high-quality connectivity enables large local audiences to enjoy uninterrupted coverage of this culturally significant event. This solution not only highlights the adaptability of melita.io’s network infrastructure but also showcases how reliable connectivity can bring communities together in meaningful ways. Our network infrastructure’s adaptability is a testament to its versatility and reliability, key factors that make it a top choice for your IoT needs.
