VIA optronics AG Continues to Drive Growth at its Nuremberg Headquarters

Employee headcount exceeds 200 with additional growth potential

VIA optronics AG (NYSE: VIAO) (“VIA” or the “Company”), a leading provider of interactive display systems and solutions, today announced that the growth of its corporate headquarters and production site in Nuremberg, Germany now exceeds 200 employees as the Company makes progress towards finalizing the ongoing production ramp up.

In 2021, VIA added a new production building adjacent to its headquarters and started ramping up mass production in its automotive production line, which the Company expects to reach the planned capacity during the second quarter. The Company has added staff in critical areas such as engineering, quality control, supply chain management and production.

As previously announced, in the initial production phase of its automotive production line, VIA optronics will be able to produce approximately 10,000 display units per month. The initial production phase is dedicated completely to a leading U.S. based luxury electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer. The total capacity at the Nuremberg facility is approximately 60,000 product units per month, depending on the product size and type.

Jürgen Eichner, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of VIA optronics AG, commented, “I am very pleased with our progress as we finalize the ramp up of our new automotive production line at our Nuremberg headquarters. This growth exemplifies our leading brand and position as a strong high-tech employer in the region. We will continue to look for new talent to join our growing team and try to execute on our expansion plans, despite the semiconductor shortage, lockdowns in China and other supply-chain-related challenges. We believe this not only demonstrates our flexibility and diligence but also our innovative capacity as we set our sights on our potential for growth ahead.”
