Following the launch in September of new data protection solutions for the virtualised and hybrid IT environment, in November it completed the divestiture of its Atalla Hardware Security module and Enterprise Secure Key Manager product lines to Germany-based Utimaco, having started the transaction in May.
It said Utimaco is set to accelerate its growth and further invest in the Atalla portfolio in the future.
Pebble Beach Systems, the Weybridge-based global software business specialising in solutions for playout
automation, proved the star performer of the month among Thames Valley companies with a 53% hike.
It announced two new significant orders to help underpin the company’s existing internal economic forecasts – one from a large European commercial broadcaster for its traditional automation and playout technology, and another from a European broadcast service provider for its new IP-based facility currently under construction in Zürich. Both orders are valued at about £1 million.
Another huge riser was the AIM-listed Catenae Innovation, the technical solutions provider operating in the worlds of media and fintech.
