From Dresden to the world

PORTFOLIO NEWS
Last Tuesday, Dresden-based storage technology company FMC announced a USD 20 million growth financing round.

The special features of the start-up’s chips are speed and power consumption. Compared to other storage devices, they work faster, consume only a thousandth of the power and can therefore be used more widely – for example in cell phones and computer watches. eCAPITAL, lead investor in the first round, sees the potential in FMC as a new global market leader. Reason enough for Axel Höpner, Munich office manager of Handelsblatt, to talk to Stefan Müller, founder and CTO of FMC, and Paul-Josef Patt, CEO of eCAPITAL. You can find the article here.
