APIOS completes Seed Investment round to take REFLECT into production.
Apios is pleased to announce that a strategic partner and investor, JET Holding Co. Ltd. (Jet Holding), has strengthened its position with Apios as the sole subscriber in the company's recent Seed round fundraising.
Completing this latest investment round signals the beginning of REFLECT CTX production system development, responding to the enormous positive airline response to the system capabilities, including the unique passenger content casting feature and digital ancillary revenue generation.
This investment leads to a closer co-partnership with JET Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. (JET Opto) in building up a new aviation entertainment system. With support from Apios, Jet Opto will add Part 21G component manufacturing approval to its already long list of automotive quality approvals. In addition, Apios receives exclusive rights to embed Jet Opto’s DRM content-casting technology into aviation-related applications.
The collaboration will see an even greater knowledge share between Aviation and Automotive towards value-based, rapid development of electronics in a highly regulated environment. Ultimately bringing lower-cost and lower-risk investment to airline partners.
Jerry Lin, CEO of Jet Opto; “It’s an exciting moment for both Apios and JET groups, to have the chance to cooperate and explore further possibilities together in the aviation industry. JET’s experiences and knowledge in the automotive industry combine with Apois’s profession in the aviation industry, it’s definitely a strong combination to bring up sparks in the aviation industry. ”
