Apissys has been sold to Reflex CES

December 2022 — Reflex CES has acquired Apissys, becoming a leading French industrial company in the high-end electronic sector.

Reflex CES is a French designer and manufacturer of high-speed boards and rugged system solutions based on high-density FPGAs and embedded processors for the space and defense industry. After having completed a secondary LBO backed by Credit Mutuel Equity and Definvest (BPI France), Reflex CES acquired Apissys.

Apissys designs and manufactures high-speed data conversion and signal processing solutions based on FPGAs, with a focus on COTS (commercial off-the-shelf), products for the defense sector. The company also provides system integration using its own products as well as third parties’ boards and sub-systems. This acquisition will provide product line and commercial synergies, a wide range of COTS products for defense applications, extended R&D development capabilities, and an expanded network of distributors and representatives to accelerate the commercial development of the group in Europe, Israel and the US.
