siOP\u00adTICA, a com\u00adpany spe\u00adcial\u00adized in optics and a lead\u00ading sup\u00adplier of switch\u00adable pri\u00advacy solu\u00adtions for cars, lap\u00adtops, tablets, mobile phone and pay\u00adment ter\u00admi\u00adnals, closed a new financ\u00ading round in the seven-digit range.<\/p>\n
As new investors, Busi\u00adness angel Thomas Philip\u00adpiak and ELAS Tech\u00adnolo\u00adgies Invest\u00adment could be won. Com\u00adple\u00admented was this financ\u00ading round by the cur\u00adrent share\u00adholder and lead investor bm|t beteili\u00adgungs\u00adman\u00adage\u00adment th\u00fcrin\u00adgen gmbh. In the search for new invest\u00adment, the siOP\u00adTICA man\u00adage\u00adment team was sup\u00adported by ven\u00adture forum neckar e.V.<\/p>\n
The new invest\u00adment will give siOP\u00adTICA the oppor\u00adtu\u00adnity to drive and accel\u00ader\u00adate the launch of the new siOP\u00adTICA tech\u00adnol\u00adogy \u201csiCURE\u201d. With siCURE, siOP\u00adTICA is the first to offer a switch\u00adable pri\u00advacy solu\u00adtion in the mar\u00adket that also can be applied with OLED displays.<\/p>\n
The solu\u00adtion has already been demon\u00adstrated at two inter\u00adna\u00adtional trade shows in Asia and USA, where it gen\u00ader\u00adated big inter\u00adest with poten\u00adtial customers.<\/p>\n
With this new tech\u00adnol\u00adogy and the pos\u00adsi\u00adbil\u00adity to also apply it on OLED dis\u00adplays, siOP\u00adTICA will have the chance to con\u00adsid\u00ader\u00adably increase its mar\u00adket share in the mar\u00adket of lap\u00adtops, mobile devices, and tablet PCs. Apart from this, there are already numer\u00adous requests from auto\u00admo\u00adtive customers.<\/p>\n
\u201cI decided to invest in siOP\u00adTICA, because I\u2018m con\u00advinced by the huge cus\u00adtomer ben\u00ade\u00adfit of the siOP\u00adTICA tech\u00adnol\u00adogy. The con\u00adver\u00adsa\u00adtions with the group of share\u00adhold\u00aders and man\u00adage\u00adment have encour\u00adaged me to become a mem\u00adber of this dynamic team\u201d under\u00adlined Thomas Philippiak.<\/p>\n
