Since its founding in 2012, XARION has raised several million euros of risk capital and funding. A member of the Porsche family became a shareholder in 2014, the machine tools company TRUMPF invested in 2016. In the same year, XARION has successfully launched its sensor product to the market. XARION employs 20 people. The talk will be presenting several applications where the membrane-free optical microphone has been used, including measurements at CERN. The company’s short history will be told from an inside perspective. A special focus will be put on the role of IP.
