Fibocom Showcases SC236 Smart Module at electronica 2026, Combining Computing and Connectivity to Enable Smarter AIoT Devices

Published

By

MUNICH, Nov. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As artificial intelligence, multimedia interaction and digital applications across industries develop rapidly, more devices are evolving from terminals focused solely on connectivity into devices with computing, interaction and intelligent application capabilities.

At the same time, AI capabilities are gradually moving onto end devices. Traditional wireless modules centered on connectivity are evolving into platforms that combine computing, multimedia and intelligent application capabilities, creating new opportunities for AIoT device innovation.

At electronica 2026, Fibocom is introducing its SC236 smart module. Built on the Qualcomm Dragonwing™ Q-2390 processor, SC236 combines computing, multimedia processing and wireless connectivity to provide AIoT devices with integrated capabilities spanning connectivity, computing and application hosting, helping customers develop smart devices for the future.

SC236 has entered the product introduction stage, with mass production planned for the fourth quarter of 2026.

Computing Capabilities Enable Smarter Devices

Traditional wireless communications modules primarily provide device connectivity. As AI and intelligent applications increasingly extend to end devices, however, demand for local computing and application processing capabilities is growing.

SC236 features a quad-core processor architecture comprising three Cortex-A55 cores and one Cortex-A78 core, together with an integrated Adreno 704 GPU. This high-performance computing architecture enhances on-device processing capabilities, providing a foundation for devices to run a wider range of local applications.

Compared with traditional connectivity-focused modules, SC236 further strengthens local processing capabilities, enabling devices to support more intelligent application functions and helping devices across industries evolve from “connected” to “intelligent.”

Multimedia Capabilities Expand AIoT Application Possibilities

As visual interaction, human-machine interaction and video applications continue to develop, smart devices require more capable displays, cameras and multimedia processing.

SC236 provides multimedia processing capabilities, supporting displays at up to FHD resolution (1920 × 1080 at 60 fps) and multiple-camera applications to meet requirements such as video capture and human-machine interaction.

For devices such as wireless smart payment terminals, industrial handhelds, body-worn cameras and dash cameras, SC236 combines computing, multimedia and wireless connectivity to deliver richer interactive experiences and intelligent application capabilities.

An Open Software Environment Accelerates Product Development

To meet the diverse development needs of customers across industries, SC236 runs the Android operating system and uses an LCC+LGA package, offering greater flexibility in software development and hardware design.

For wireless connectivity, SC236 supports LTE Cat 4 cellular communications, as well as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0 BLE and multi-constellation GNSS positioning.

Working with Ecosystem Partners to Advance AIoT Innovation

Edward Ai, Senior Director of Product Marketing at Qualcomm Technologies, said:
“As devices across more industries become increasingly intelligent, demand for computing capabilities, intelligent interaction and reliable connectivity continues to grow. Qualcomm Dragonwing platforms address the needs of a wide range of intelligent edge devices, helping device manufacturers develop next-generation products with higher performance and richer application experiences. We are pleased to continue working with Fibocom to bring this platform to more IoT device applications.”

Thales Zhang, Vice President and Head of the Global Marketing and Computing Business Group at Fibocom, said:
“As AI capabilities continue to extend to end devices, devices across industries are evolving from connectivity-focused terminals into devices with local computing and intelligent interaction capabilities. Built on the Qualcomm Dragonwing Q-2390 processor, the SC236 smart module combines connectivity, computing and multimedia capabilities to provide customers with an integrated development solution for AIoT devices, helping enable more intelligent devices across industries.”

Looking ahead, Fibocom will continue to advance the integration of wireless connectivity and smart device capabilities, accelerating the deployment of AI technologies in more devices across industries.

Temu and CEAJE Partner to Support the Next Generation of Spanish Entrepreneurs

Published

The agreement combines CEAJE’s nationwide network with Temu’s e-commerce capabilities to support digitalization, online sales and international growth

MADRID, Nov. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Temu, the global e-commerce platform, and CEAJE (Confederación Española de Asociaciones de Jóvenes Empresarios), Spain’s national confederation representing young entrepreneurs, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to support young Spanish entrepreneurs and the growth of their businesses through digital commerce and internationalization.

The partnership will involve training, information-sharing and practical initiatives designed to help young entrepreneurs and emerging businesses strengthen their digital capabilities, develop their online sales and explore opportunities to reach customers beyond Spain’s borders.

The partnership will be rolled out through CEAJE’s nationwide network of regional and provincial associations, connecting Temu with young entrepreneur communities across Spain. It will build on CEAJE’s existing programs in training, mentorship and support for young business owners, while enabling Temu to contribute practical knowledge and expertise on digitalization, e-commerce and internationalization.

“Young entrepreneurs are increasingly looking for practical ways to strengthen their digital capabilities, grow online and reach customers beyond their home markets,” said Antonio Magraner Balaguer, President of CEAJE. “Through this agreement with Temu, we aim to give businesses across the CEAJE network access to relevant knowledge, training and new opportunities in e-commerce, helping them compete and grow in an increasingly digital economy.”

Since launching in Spain in March 2023, Temu has expanded its engagement with local businesses and industry organizations. In the first half of 2026, the company held more than 100 meetings with SME organizations, business associations and other industry stakeholders across Europe to better understand the practical needs of smaller businesses and how the platform can support them more effectively.

These conversations highlighted three recurring challenges for SMEs seeking to grow online: complexity, cost and connection. Through its Local Seller Program and partnerships with organizations such as CEAJE, Temu is working to address these barriers by simplifying access to e-commerce, sharing practical knowledge and helping businesses connect with customers in Spain and other markets.

“By combining CEAJE’s network with Temu’s e-commerce experience and market reach, we hope to help more Spanish businesses build their online presence, connect with new customers and pursue sustainable growth across Europe,” said a Temu spokesperson.

The partnership also builds on the experience of Spanish businesses already selling through Temu. According to the Temu Small Business Insights Report 2026, approximately 50% of surveyed Spanish sellers received their first order within one to three days of listing on Temu. More than half (52%) said they had expanded some aspect of their business since joining the platform, including their product range, warehouse capacity or workforce. A quarter had already expanded into new markets and were selling to both domestic and international customers through Temu, rising to nearly 60% when including those in the process of expanding or planning to do so.

About CEAJE

CEAJE (Confederación Española de Asociaciones de Jóvenes Empresarios) is Spain’s national confederation representing young entrepreneurs and business owners under the age of 41, founded in 1991. Through a network of 55 provincial and regional associations, CEAJE brings together more than 18,500 direct associates and around 21,000 member companies. CEAJE is integrated into CEOE, Spain’s principal business confederation.
