International law firm Bird & Bird, alongside AJURISS, advised Christophe Dufresne, founder of Investronic, and GEI – which acquired a stake in the company during an initial offering in 2021 – on this new round of financing. This transaction, conducted on an exclusively financial basis, enabled the family office Evolem to become the new majority shareholder.
Investronic has established itself as a leading player in the consolidation of the robotics and industrial automation market. The group has developed cutting-edge R&D capabilities, particularly in vision, robotics and artificial intelligence, enabling it to offer high value-added, tailor-made and turnkey solutions for the most demanding sectors, including watchmaking, luxury goods, pharmaceuticals and medical devices. With a workforce of 100, the Group develops more than 200 projects per year.
Christophe Dufresne and his management team have chosen to join up with Evolem and several company executives to accelerate the group's development, particularly internationally, with the ambition of becoming the European leader in automation and precision robotics.
