(March 1, 2007) LAUSANNE, Switzerland — Synova restructured its strategic business model, allowing select partners to license proprietary Laser MicroJet technology. End users, certain equipment manufacturers, and R&D institutions will gain access to the technology via licensing agreements. “This came about in a natural way, as the fastest method to expand the technology into higher capacities and different markets,” said Bernold Richerzhagen, CEO.
