The Board of IVISYS AB (‘IVISYS’) has—pursuant to the authorization from the Extraordinary General Meeting convened on 14 October, 2016—decided to carry out a rights issuance with preferential rights for existing shareholders. Upon full subscription, the rights issuance will provide the company with approximately 6.5 million SEK before issuance costs.
IVISYS is in a period of rapid expansion. In only a year and a half, the Company has built a successful sales team, which operates across Northern and Eastern Europe.

The Company was selected as one of the top ten leading suppliers in the vision industry by the California-based magazine Manufacturing Tech Insights.
