© LOLITECH – TBI sarlWhat next ?Thanks to PLCOPen, Beremiz brings automation toeveryone's useControl engineer, researchers and hobbyists will shareautomation the same way free software communityshares source code. Public repositories will appearTeachers will use Beremiz, thus promoting openstandards like PLCOpen, IEC­61131, CanOpen, SVG ...Automation “vendor lock­in” will be a user choice

© LOLITECH – TBI sarlBehind the projectLolitech is a French company, held in December 2005Our business model is based on Free SoftwareOur goal is to bring Free Software to IndustryWe will provide early commercial support for the project,and manage community contributionsOnce autonomous, a community driven foundation willrepresent the Beremiz project.
