Micross Components said it plans to acquire AEMtec, a move designed to significantly expand the company’s European footprint in advanced packaging and optoelectronics. The announcement, made July 28, 2026, points to a broader push by Micross to strengthen its position in high-reliability microelectronics and related services.
According to the company, the acquisition will add to Micross’ capabilities in advanced packaging, photonics and test. Those areas are increasingly important as chip and optical technologies become more complex and customers look for suppliers that can support multiple stages of development, integration and validation.
The deal also gives Micross a larger presence in the European market. By bringing AEMtec into its business, Micross is positioning itself to serve customers in Europe more directly while broadening the reach of its packaging and optoelectronics offerings.
While the announcement emphasizes strategic expansion rather than transaction details, the move highlights Micross’ intent to grow both its technical portfolio and geographic coverage. In practical terms, the AEMtec acquisition is framed as a way to deepen the company’s advanced packaging and photonics platform while extending its access to European customers.
