Los Angeles, California / Athens, Greece – May 6, 2025
Acromove Inc.,a leading innovator in mobile edge computing and private 5G infrastructure, announces a landmark strategic investment agreement with EFA GROUP, a global high-tech leader in defense and industrial systems. The partnership marks a pivotal step in Acromove’s evolution and positions the company to accelerate its innovation roadmap, expand internationally, and enter the dual-use (civil and defense) technology arena.
As part of this collaboration, EFA GROUP will initially invest close to €3.0 million through a capital increase.

“I’m truly excited about this strategic investment from a world-leading provider of advanced technology solutions for defense applications. This collaboration is a strong vote of confidence in Acromove’s technology and team, and it enables us to scale faster. Together, we will co-develop new innovative products, expand into high-impact markets, and strengthen our position at the forefront of edge cloud infrastructure, AI inference, and private 5G systems for both commercial and defense use.”
— George Katiniotis, CEO Acromove Inc.
Acromove’s core innovation lies in its ultra-portable, ruggedized edge cloud systems integrated with Private 5G networks, enabling instant deployment in under 15 minutes with minimal setup. These solutions have proven field value across mining, construction, live broadcasting, civil protection, and are now being adapted for defense and emergency response missions.
This partnership will unlock new capabilities by combining Acromove’s platforms with SCYTALYS’ tactical data software, also a member of EFA GROUP. Together, the joint solutions aim to deliver mission-critical, real-time communication and situational awareness across the most demanding operational environments.
“The integrated product solutions from SCYTALYS and Acromove constitute a significant force multiplier on the modern battlefield, enabling seamless communication and the efficient flow of critical information across echelons.
