Transense agrees final consideration relating to the transfer of the operational business and trading assets relating to iTrack, to Bridgestone Corporation, Japan ("Bridgestone")

Transense Technologies plc, the provider of specialist sensor systems, previously announced that on 24 June 2020 the Company granted an exclusive worldwide licence to ATMS Technology Limited ("ATMS"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Bridgestone, covering all current and future iTrack technology for a period of ten years.
