(NASDAQ: INVE) is a leading global provider of Internet of Things (IoT) technology and digital identity solutions. Headquartered in Santa Ana, California, USA, the company operates internationally with facilities and partners across Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. Identiv employs a highly skilled workforce committed to delivering secure, scalable, and innovative technology solutions that bridge the physical and digital worlds. Identiv’s business portfolio centers on the development and supply of RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification), NFC (Near Field Communication), and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) inlays, tags, and labels, enabling connectivity, authentication, and tracking across industries. The company provides end-to-end IoT enablement — encompassing design, manufacturing, and software integration — ensuring clients receive complete and trusted solutions from a single source. Its products and services are deployed across a range of sectors, including pharmaceuticals, healthcare, smart packaging, logistics, retail, and secure identification. Through these solutions, Identiv empowers organizations to establish digital identities for physical items, enhancing operational visibility, security, and efficiency. Corporate Evolution and Strategic Focus Identiv’s origins trace back to its early expertise in secure identity, access control, and smart card technologies. As markets evolved and the digital transformation accelerated, the company undertook a significant strategic realignment to focus on the growing IoT ecosystem. In 2024, Identiv completed the sale of its physical security business to Vitaprotech SAS for approximately $145 million, marking a pivotal step toward becoming a pure-play IoT solutions provider. This divestiture strengthened Identiv’s financial position and sharpened its strategic direction.
