Oliver Winzenried, CEO and co-founder of Wibu-Systems, will be live on 25 February at 9 am, to illustrate the opportunities for digitalization brought about by software monetization. Today, the capabilities of many products are shaped by the software or firmware that controls them.

The manufacturers would then stay on top of the complete product lifecycle from both the technical and the commercial perspective.
