The deal, slated to close in the fourth quarter of 2025, will see Nozomi Networks become a wholly owned subsidiary while continuing to operate independently.<\/p>\n<p>The acquisition represents Mitsubishi Electric\u2019s largest to date, with the company set to purchase the 93% of Nozomi shares it does not already own for $883 million in cash. Mitsubishi Electric previously acquired a 7% stake through Nozomi\u2019s $100 million Series E funding round in early 2024, a relationship that laid the foundation for the takeover.<\/p>\n<p>Following the transaction\u2019s closure, Nozomi Networks will retain its brand, leadership, and personnel, maintaining its headquarters in San Francisco and its research and development hub in Switzerland. Both parties have indicated there will be no disruption to operations, roadmaps, or external partnerships.<\/p>\n<p>Nozomi Networks focuses on security in operational technology (OT), Internet of Things (IoT), and cyber-physical systems (CPS). Its platform, designed for critical infrastructure and industrial organizations, focuses on asset discovery, continuous monitoring, anomaly detection, and vulnerability management. The company generated $75 million in revenue in 2024, an increase from $62 million the previous year.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The integration of Nozomi\u2019s cloud-first, AI-powered solutions into Mitsubishi Electric\u2019s portfolio grants the Japanese industrial giant a stake in advanced industrial cybersecurity at a time when OT and IoT environments are seeing increased attention due to rising threats of cyberattacks and operational disruptions. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy becoming part of Mitsubishi Electric, we will combine our strengths to drive the next generation of industrial security and innovation to bring additional value for customers around the world,\u201d said Edgard Capdevielle, president and CEO of Nozomi Networks. \u201cWith the combined global reach and resources of both companies, we can supercharge our innovation engine, helping industrial organizations secure and accelerate their own digital transformations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mitsubishi Electric, which brings more than a century of experience in industrial technology, sees the purchase as a way to accelerate the digital transformation of critical infrastructure clients globally. Combining its operational expertise with Nozomi\u2019s technology is expected to result in the development of new AI-powered solutions tailored for OT and IoT use cases.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis acquisition will enable us to co-create valuable new services while supporting Nozomi\u2019s commitment to innovation and customer flexibility,\u201d said Satoshi Takeda, Mitsubishi Electric\u2019s senior vice president. \u201cTogether, we can help our customers achieve their digital transformation goals while enhancing security, efficiency, and resilience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The transaction is expected to receive all necessary regulatory approvals and is anticipated to close by the end of 2025. <\/p>\n<p><\/body> <\/p>\n<footer class=\"single-article__footer\" readability=\"3.4491017964072\">\n<div class=\"author-card\" readability=\"14\">\n<div class=\"author-card__avatar\">\n<figure class=\"author-card__image-wrap\"> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"author-card__image\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/mitsubishi-electric-to-acquire-nozomi-networks-in-1-billion-deal-1.jpg?w=640&ssl=1\" alt=\"Greg Otto\"> <\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><h4 class=\"author-card__name\">Written by Greg Otto<\/h4>\n<p> Greg Otto is Editor-in-Chief of CyberScoop, overseeing all editorial content for the website.
