Capricon invests €3m in Miaa Guard

Capricorn drew capital for the investment from two funds, the €33.2m Capricorn ICT Fund that closed in 2014, and the Quest for Growth listed vehicle.

Pamica, the investment vehicle of entrepreneur Michel Akkermans, also took part in the financing.

The fresh capital will be used to accelerate the company's growth. Both Michel Akkermans and Capricon's Katrin Geyskens are joining the board of directors.
