Exosens Acquires Emberion
Exosens has announced that it has acquired Emberion.
Headquartered in Mérignac, France, Exosens (formerly Photonis) is a provider of electro-optical technologies for lifescience, industrial control, nuclear and defense applications. The acquisition is expected to strengthen Exosens’ position as a leading provider of advanced imaging technologies across the full spectrum of light.

Anssi Kariola, Chairman of the Board at Emberion, commented that “Combining Emberion’s patented technology with Exosens’ existing offering, sales channel and large-volume manufacturing capability enables true large-scale global deployment of Emberion’s unique technology.”
The financial details of the deal have not been disclosed.
