Certified Problem Solver

Wiicom S.r.l. is a verified Italian IoT hardware manufacturer founded in 2012, spun off from Politecnico di Torino. While the project has high real-world utility in the B2B/OEM sector and verifiable longevity (12+ years), the submission contains significant inaccuracies (claiming 'everyone' as audience and 'most people' for traction). The 'GoldenGale' name appears to be an error or internal code. The company is a stable SME with plausible team size, but the input data quality was poor.
