The company says the round values it at $1.3 billion; it follows a $45 million seed round announced earlier this year. Onodrim expects to announce its first acquisitions in the coming months.1
Onodrim is also opening offices in Munich and Turin, joining its existing offices in Amsterdam, London and Vilnius. Co-founder and Chief Technology Officer Alexander Blessing invited approaches from owners of defense, aerospace, manufacturing and industrial businesses.1
For business owners, Onodrim's offer pairs a controlling investment with promised operational, business development and technology resources. The company says businesses it backs will gain access to engineering teams that can develop new products and modernize manufacturing and operations.1
