    The shareholders of Robin Radar and investment company Parcom have reached an agreement on the acquisition by Parcom of Robin Radar, a leading developer of radar systems specialised in detecting and tracking small flying objects. In partnership with Parcom, Robin Radar’s management aims to continue its current growth trajectory. In the coming years, the company will focus on expanding its presence in existing markets, while targeting growth in new sectors and geographies, particularly North America.

    Founded in 2010 as a TNO spin-off, headquartered in The Hague, Netherlands, Robin Radar has established itself as a global leader in radar systems designed to detect and classify birds and drones. The company’s radar solutions serve a range of critical industries, including defence, security, civil and military aviation, and wind farms.

The company will further invest in the development of new radar solutions to meet the changing needs within the sector. In addition to product development, Robin Radar will focus on increasing its sales and services rollout in the rapidly growing defence and civil market segments, including in North America. To facilitate joint growth, Robin Radar and Parcom will drive an ambitious scale-up strategy, expanding the organisation and increasing assembly outsourcing.
