  • Acconeer received an order from BEYD worth USD 421,000.
  • It is the company's assessment that the effects of Covid-19 has had a limited impact on operations in 2020. No impact was seen on the development side, while manufacturing was somewhat affected by a global shortage of processors that occurred in connection with Covid-19. Regarding demand for the company's products, we see that some customer projects have been delayed, but the assessment is that this falls within the margin of uncertainty that always exists.

  • Acconeer receives funding of SEK 4M for project on sleep monitoring with Sleepiz and University of Gothenburg.
