Participation in the start-up Aconno
Schmersal acquires a 26% stake in Aconno. The Düsseldorf-based start-up develops customer-specific hardware, Bluetooth and sensor solutions as well as software for the areas of digitalization, the Internet of Things and Industry 4.0.
In particular, Aconno offers Bluetooth chips and a development platform with which the company develops and mass produces intelligent devices and networkable objects for its customers' individual, Industry 4.0-capable applications.
