Japanese multinational technology company Konica Minolta has joined hands with Mobotix AG to take their strategic partnership to the next level for the Indian market. With the partnership, Konica Minolta India aims to deliver AI-powered and IoT-enabled intelligent video security and analytics solutions that can help government and enterprises analyse processes, situations, and behaviour.

The Konica Minolta India team is undergoing expansion and it is reorganising for deeper regional sales, service, pre-sales and logistics to ensure better support and services for business development and technical functions via channel partners to end customers.

“We are delighted to have Mobotix onboard for the Indian market. The relationship between Konica Minolta India and Mobotix plays an essential role in continuous progress and breakthroughs in the video surveillance segment. We aim to cover many existing and future applications with the combination of Konica Minolta’s core competencies of AI and Deep Learning and Mobotix's high-end camera technology," Katsuhisa Asari, Managing Director, Konica Minolta India, said in a statement.

Under this partnership, Konica Minolta India intends to cater to governments and enterprises that need intelligent security solutions to protect their assets, employees, and operations.

It will also cater to customers who want to leverage IoT capabilities built into cameras to protect themselves from potential threats. The company’s business activities will also focus on key vertical markets, particularly in industry, energy, logistics and transportation, healthcare, government, education, and retail. Video technologies will help optimise workflows, processes, and productivity in these sectors and improve day-to-day operations.

"In recent years, consumers and their requirements have changed dramatically, and video surveillance systems go far beyond the concept of security. Thus, collecting, linking, and analysing data open ups new possibilities. We can use it to make processes transparent, accelerate and simplify them or, in general terms, 'make life a little bit better for everyone'.

"At Mobotix we focus on meeting these changing demands and customize our offerings accordingly. Under our collaboration with Konica Minolta India, we aim to bring our technologies together that will enable us to take video security to new heights,” said Thomas Lausten, CEO of Mobotix.
