Hypercat Alliance is a global non-profit organisation that aims to drive a secure and interoperable Internet of Things (IoT) for industry and cities. Membership of the organisation ranges from technology companies and telecommunications services providers, to local authorities and research institutes.

In addition, the organisation also works closely with industry and governmental players who are interested in contributing to the development of smart, secure, and interoperable IoT solutions. And it serves as an inclusive one-stop shop of best practices in the implementation of IoT, through the sharing of knowledge of processes and applications.
