Newboot completes its first fundraising round with NOVA by Saint-Gobain and several Business Angels
This round will accelerate the commercial deployment of Newboot’s Edge OS and PaaS solutions to enable the collection of standardized data for the industrial sector
Founded in 2020, Newboot standardized data collection from industrial machines and automatons thanks to its operating system embedded in IoT (Internet of Things) gateways and the native integration into the Cloud infrastructures and SaaS solutions of its customers.
Newboot already commercialized its solutions with large industrial groups in several countries (Europe, US, China) and various technical contexts.
For this first round of financing, NOVA by Saint-Gobain integrates the capital of the company, accompanied by Pilot Fish II and several private investors. The funds raised will help to structure the team, accelerate the industrialization of the Newboot Edge OS® and Newboot PaaS® solutions, and finally support the commercial development of the company.
Simplify and facilitate the collection of production data
Newboot Edge OS® makes it easy to control, collect and send data from PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) and industrial sensors to Cloud infrastructures and clients' business applications with real-time machine data flows.
Deploy an IoT infrastructure in minutes
Newboot PaaS® allows to deploy a complete and secure Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure in a few minutes, as a service or integrated into an existing infrastructure, while offering all the services necessary for its administration: device management, provisioning, remote updates, Digital Twins, security and event monitoring.
Partnerships with Microsoft and Lenovo
To support its development, Newboot has signed close technical partnerships with several major technology players such as Microsoft, Lenovo and Nvidia in order to offer innovative and integrated solutions to complex industrial environments.
The team behind Newboot
The two founders, Julien Morin (CEO) and Wael Chahrour (CIO), met during a previous entrepreneurial adventure around sensor solutions and automation of industrial processes. Recently joined by Sébastien Laruée (CTO), the company now intends to strengthen its team in the coming months, and roll out its solutions on a large scale.
Following this round of financing, the company Newboot integrates into its board of directors:
● Raphaël Viard, VP & CDIO at Saint-Gobain High Performance Solutions
● Julien Trassard, Head of Cloud Infrastructure and Engineering at Accenture
● Pilot Fish II, an investment fund operating mainly in France and Switzerland
We would like to warmly thank Emily Pabot du Chatelard from Archers for her advice and support on this operation.
