August Debouzy assisted Aptiv, a company specializing in the design and manufacture of automotive equipment, with its acquisition of Krono-Safe Automotive.
Following its acquisition of an equity interest in Krono-Safe in 2019, through a series B funding round, Aptiv has confirmed its intention to create synergies by acquiring Krono-Safe's automotive business, carried out by its subsidiary Krono-Safe Automotive, whose main asset is the Asterios Automotive Tool Suite (AAT) developed by its teams in Massy and Vannes. The AAT offers a range of integrated software which provides engineering teams with systems in order to ensure their safety and to cope with the growing complexity of software integration on single-to multi-core infrastructures. The ASTERIOS® software remains the property of Krono-Safe, which uses it in sectors other than the automotive industry (mainly aeronautics).
