MOBOTIX has been working successfully with the Vaxtor Group as a Technology Partner over the last few years, therefore, the acquisition of the Spanish company that develops automatic character recognition software, using video technology, was a logical consequence of this intensive cooperation.
Review of the acquisition
The strategic expansion was already announced on January 17, 2022, after the purchase agreement for 100% of the company shares was signed.
Due to the exceptional importance of Vaxtor’s technologies, the Spanish licensing authorities requested a judicial review of the acquisition, which has been positively decided and the Spanish Ministry of Industry and Trade has approved the takeover. The closing is officially completed and the legal transfer of the company shares has taken place.

MOBOTIX AG strengthens its operating business with the strategic acquisition of the Spanish Vaxtor Group from Tres Cantos, Madrid. The acquisition is an essential building block for MOBOTIX in its positioning as a high-end solution provider based on video and artificial intelligence technology.
It will also strengthen the development cooperation between Vaxtor and the MOBOTIX development office in Madrid, allowing both companies to able to address emerging growth markets and future requirements even more effectively. Market Intelligence estimates that the global market for automatic license plate recognition solutions alone will grow from $2.3 billion to $3.8 billion by 2025.
