Resonetics is a pioneer in micro-manufacturing, serving the life sciences industry. The acquisition of HTI Medical will expand its precision manufacturing capabilities. GTCR is a leading private equity firm which has invested more than US$18 billion in over 200 companies.
TDK Corporation, together with its subsidiaries, manufactures and sells electronic components in Japan, Europe, China, Asia, the Americas and internationally.
