DecaWave

“‘’DecaWave pioneered a ground breaking technology which is now on all major Smartphones. In bringing a new technology to market, we built a company and a market. Starting 2007 until we were bought for $400M in 2020. We partnered with OFM from 2008 onwards and built an international organisation (Ireland, UK, France, Korea, USA +…). OFM were indispensable to DecaWave throughout, budgeting, and financial management and advice, funding, investor relations and making us investor ready and indeed an acquisition target. They were part of the team throughout and still used by Qorvo in managing DecaWave Ireland. Thank you OFM!’’”
