The acquisition of E3D is intended to strengthen Ubiqconn’s capabilities in the rugged computer market and provide direct access to E3D’s proprietary optical bonding technology.
Ubiqconn says the advantages will include enhanced supply chain control, reduced procurement expenses, improved profit margins, and decreased dependence on third-party suppliers which will boost its operational resilience and accelerate its growth in the US market.
“E3D brings extensive expertise in display technology and optical bonding that, when combined with Ubiqconn’s robust design capabilities, will optimize product development processes and enable the creation of high-performance display and system solutions particularly suited for extreme environments,” said Paul Hsieh, CEO of Ubiqconn.
The acquisition represents a strategic investment in the North American market for Ubiqconn which is anticipating American growth opportunities and US market development.
The company will now focus on building stronger local partnerships and driving new projects to increase its North American market share.
