May 2023:
Very happy to announce, that most important milestone has been reached in April: We have closed our 400K€ Seed capital funding round and we are extremely glad about the possibility to continue our growth.
We had a great DMEA hospital IT show in Berlin in April! We see very clearly, that BYOD strategy using private Smartphones for work processes is very much under discussion. Privacy and data protection issues everywhere. Our strategy of a "temporary" Smartphone replacement is receiving more attention. Everyone can see now: "The Smart Badge makes sense!" We now work on PoC´s in hospitals, agriculture, military environment and in construction. Also, one of our partners positioned our system as a nice digital helper for "commissioning medicals" in pharmacies.
Last not least it was important step for Infrafon to test Ascom Unite OAP connectivity.
