Internet of Things (IoT) startups could give themselves a major boost by applying for a new 12-week accelerator set to take place in Barnsley.

Called IoT Tribe North, the programme will run at the Barnsley Digital Media Centre (DMC) from January, and host 10 successful applicants from around the globe.

Tanya Suarez, CEO and Co-Founder of IoT Tribe, told Tech North that they will be provided with a support package that includes help with IP, bill of materials management, design services, and security.

Backed by Innovate UK, Capital Enterprise and Barnsley Council, IoT Tribe North will also link the startups with local and international partners.
