Gimv sells stake in Liquavista

The company has developed a new electronic display technology, known as electrowetting, which uses liquid instead of crystals found in more traditional LCD screens. Liquavista's displays are used in a number of products such as telephones, digital cameras and satellite navigation systems.

Gimv first invested in the company in 2006 alongside Amadeus Capital and New Venture Partners. Since then, a number of follow-on investments have been made, with the most recent being a €7m series-D round in April 2010.

The sale has a positive impact of €4.6m on Gimv's last published equity value at 30 September 2010.
