Control room software specialist VuWall has been bought by private equity firm Naxicap.

VuWall joins a Naxicap portfolio which includes Guntermann & Drunck (G&D - acquired in 2020) and Tritec Electronic (2022), both of which develop control room hardware. The firms will "leverage each other’s technology, workforce and market presence".

Thorsten Lipp, CEO of G&D, will now also serve as the CEO of VuWall; Markus Müller-Heidelberg will remain MD of Tritec Electronic; and VuWall founder Paul Vander Plaetse will be chief marketing officer for the three brands.

"Customers will experience faster response times, streamlined operational workflows, and increased system reliability through seamlessly integrated video wall and KVM solutions," says VuWall in a statement.

“This acquisition represents a significant milestone in our mission to bring together best-of-breed solutions in the control room industry,” said Joseph Pacher-Theinburg at Naxicap. “By leveraging the strengths of VuWall’s software development team and G&D and Tritec’s hardware expertise, we are unlocking new possibilities for innovation and market growth. ”

Vander Plaetse adds: “The integration of G&D’s world-class KVM technology with VuWall’s innovative IP video wall solutions is a game changer for command and control environments."
