International law firm Bird & Bird has advised the Munich-based company Toposens GmbH on its latest Series Pre-A financing round, led by its existing investors ALPANA Ventures from Switzerland, Basinghall Partners from the UK and a new investor SPDG Ventures from Belgium, amongst others.

The startup works with well-known partners such as Infineon and Murata and has implemented and successfully tested the technology in a wide range of automotive, robotics and industrial projects together with customers such as BMW, Continental and Daimler.
