One person behind the concept, Franck Potiez, a leading expert in Mobility & IoT at Atos said: "This project is part of the Open Innovation initiative of the Atos Group, which unites the strength of our company with the agility of a startup.Beyond the technological and commercial aspects of such an innovation, let's not forget the spirit and the goal that have brought all the different participants in this project together: saving lives!"
