The potential buyer:
Lexit Group AS, with the Swedish subsidiary, Idnet AB
Lexit Group is the largest player in the Nordics in the area that Techstep has defined as Business Critical Mobility, i.e., solutions for data capture and digitalization in operations throughout the value chain from production, in warehouse and logistics and in retail.
