Battery Ventures, a global, technology-focused investment firm, has reached an agreement to acquire imc Test & Measurement (“imc”), a global provider of productive test and measurement hardware and software solutions. Joining Battery’s group of companies in the test and measurement market, imc will operate alongside U.S.-based Audio Precision and Denmark-based GRAS Sound & Vibration, which were acquired by Battery in 2018 and 2020, respectively. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Founded in 1988, imc is a well-known provider of state-of-the-art data acquisition systems and software. The company serves customers in markets such as automotive, energy, rail and aerospace, among others.
In partnership with Battery, Audio Precision and GRAS, imc will continue its long-standing tradition of pursuing growth across the sectors it serves. Joining forces with Audio Precision and GRAS, imc will benefit from business synergies across the group of companies and drive its future growth through technology development, expansion of production capabilities and an increased global market reach.
Operations for imc will continue to be based in Germany and the company’s executive team will remain in place, working closely with the group CEO Mike Flaherty to manage the business. “We are excited to welcome imc to our platform of test and measurement companies. Its highly-engineered data acquisition systems are extremely complementary to our existing portfolio of sensors and analyzers from GRAS and Audio Precision, and will broaden the market exposure of our group, enabling us to serve our customers even more effectively in the future,” said Flaherty. “We also look forward to working together to pursue additional complementary acquisitions for the group.”
“After thirty-three years of founder ownership and steady growth, this partnership brings imc many new benefits as we continue to accelerate growth globally,” said imc CEO Kai Gilbert. “We anticipate many synergies and look forward to working with Audio Precision, GRAS and Battery as we continue to develop imc’s business and deliver market-leading products to our customers.”

57% of Brands Can't Prove ROI on Sports Fan Engagement Despite Rising Investment8.9.2026 12:30:00 EEST | Press release
Research commissioned by Infobip, the global AI-first cloud communications platform celebrating 20 years, shows brands are significantly increasing investment in sports fan engagement even as many struggle to prove business impact. The global study of 500 marketing and digital leaders across industries, including retail, financial services, telecoms, travel, and food & beverage in 11 markets found that brands currently allocate an average of 13% of annual marketing budgets to sports-related activations, and nearly 73% expect investment to increase over the next 12 months. Yet while live sports moments generate the highest levels of fan engagement, nearly half (47%) of organizations admit they struggle to deliver real-time engagement during live events, and more than half (57%) say it is difficult to prove the ROI of their sports marketing investments. Ben Lewis, VP Marketing and Growth at Infobip, said: “Half of brands can't prove the ROI of their sports marketing – that's not a measur

Icon Solutions and MongoDB Benchmark Shows IPF Processing 6,000 Payments per Second with Zero Data Loss Under Failure8.9.2026 11:54:00 EEST | Press release
Icon Solutions and MongoDB today published the results of a joint benchmark showing that the Icon Payments Framework (IPF), running on MongoDB Atlas, processed 6,000 end-to-end payment transactions per second (around 430,000 database operations per second) with a mean end-to-end latency of 0.51 seconds, and recovered from both application and database node failures with zero data loss. Account-to-account payment volumes are moving rapidly onto instant rails. Traffic is migrating from net-settlement schemes to instant schemes, and direct debit volumes are expected to partially move to request-to-pay with settlement through instant schemes. For banks, that means sharper traffic peaks, a growing share of payments bound to scheme SLAs of a few seconds, and no tolerance for downtime. Sustaining several thousand payments per second while maintaining resilience, availability and low latency is routinely underestimated by institutions that self-build, and retro-fitting legacy platforms for alw
