Antenna measurement specialist Antennex has secured 1.5 million euros in seed funding from Value Creation Capital (VCC) and the Brabant Development Agency (BOM). Leveraging reverberation chamber technology for next-generation wireless applications such as in telecom, automotive and aerospace and defense, the Eindhoven University of Technology (TUE) spinoff develops compact measurement systems that deliver fast results with extremely high accuracy. With the investment, the company aims to further enhance its product offerings and scale operations to meet growing demand.

Antennex has translated years of TUE research into a commercial product. Its flagship, the Wireless Connector, is equipped with a built-in calibration module and intuitive controls and offers a faster, more efficient alternative to traditional anechoic chambers, which are notoriously difficult to operate and maintain. Covering the 10–140 GHz range, the system is ideally suited for the development of future technologies in wireless communication, autonomous radar and sensing. Following its recent market launch, it’s already used by notable customers.

“This investment allows us to expand our operational and commercial activities for customers worldwide,” says Antennex CEO Anouk Hubrechsen. “VCC and BOM bring an enormous added value in developing our company because of their backgrounds in the RF and test and measurement domains. We’re happy to welcome them as a shareholder in our company.”

“The transition to having more antennas integrated into devices will revolutionize various industries by enabling faster, more reliable and more extensive wireless communication and sensing capabilities,” adds Remie Bastiaansen, investment manager at BOM. “Antennex is at the forefront of this transition, providing essential testing solutions that will facilitate the deployment and adoption of these advanced wireless technologies. BOM is excited to collaborate with VCC in offering both business development support and a new investment to the company.”
