Exein raises €100m to build the world’s digital immune system in face of cyber security crisis

Published

SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA – Media OutReach Newswire – 19 December 2025 – Exein, the European leader in embedded cybersecurity for connected devices, today announced €100 million in new funding, bringing its total raised in 2025 to €170 million. The round is led by Blue Cloud Ventures, with participation from HV Capital, Intrepid Growth Partners, Geodesic Capital, and J.P. Morgan.

Gianni Cuozzo, Founder & CEO, Exein

Exein’s rapid growth reflects both the mounting threat to global businesses and organisations from cyber attacks and a shift to secure connected devices at the source, rather than through conventional perimeter defences. The company’s embedded, hardware-agnostic security platform already protects more than 1.5 billion devices across critical sectors, including energy, healthcare, defence, automotive, aerospace, industrial automation, semiconductors and robotics. Within the first quarter of 2026, the number of devices is expected to surpass two billion, as Exein rolls out new technology, the number of active devices rises and regulatory pressure for device-level security increases.
Expansion to Asia Pacific Doubles Growth
The latest funding follows Exein’s €70 million Series C in July 2025, which enabled the company to accelerate its expansion across North America and Asia-Pacific, including the opening of a new Taipei office in early 2026. This year, Exein has delivered 5x year-on-year revenue growth, with almost 50% of its revenue coming from the APAC region, expanding its customer footprint through partnerships with leading manufacturers and chipset providers, including Mediatek and Kontron.
The company’s valuation has nearly doubled in the five months between the July fundraise and this extension, underscoring both exceptional commercial performance and surging demand for device-level cybersecurity.
Funding to support innovation, M&A and next-generation AI security
The €100M in new funding includes both equity and a financing facility arranged by J.P. Morgan. Exein will deploy the capital to:
  • Accelerate international expansion, particularly in the APAC and US markets.
  • Support a multi-deal M&A programme in 2026 in Europe and the US.
  • Advance a new generation of embedded runtime security technology for connected devices, including AI-driven protection for on-device AI and large language models (LLMs)
A digital immune system for the connected world
As cyberattacks increasingly target the physical world, shutting down hospitals, and airports, disrupting transport systems, and compromising supply chains, manufacturers are moving away from traditional perimeter defences and towards protection embedded directly in the device. Exein’s platform places AI-powered runtime security inside the firmware itself, enabling devices to detect, contain and respond to threats in real time, even without continuous connectivity.
This model gives manufacturers deeper integrity and provenance checks across their entire supply chain, while ensuring compliance with global cybersecurity regulations such as RED 3.3, the forthcoming EU Cyber Resilience Act, and the US Cyber Trust Mark. With connected devices now the world’s largest and fastest-growing attack surface, Exein has positioned itself as the world’s largest embedded runtime security provider.
Gianni Cuozzo, Founder & CEO, Exein, said: “This round demonstrates just how rapidly Exein is growing. In just one year, we’ve become a truly global company, expanding across the US and Asia-Pacific, and emerged as the world’s largest embedded runtime security provider by devices protected. This new funding allows us to accelerate even faster in 2026 and to support our M&A strategy as we scale into new markets. It will also enable us to introduce the next generation of runtime security technology, probably the most significant advance in our field in almost a decade.”
Caesar Chuang, VP, Asia Pacific & Japan, Exein, said: “This extension underscores Exein’s growing footprint across the Asia-Pacific region, ahead of continued expansion in 2026 with the opening of our Taipei office and a series of new partnerships set to elevate Exein’s role in the market.”
Rami Rahal, Founder & Managing Partner at Blue Cloud Ventures, said: “Exein’s mission is a vital one, and its solution – to place intelligent, real-time defence inside the device itself – is exactly what the market needs as cyberattacks increasingly spill into the physical world. We’re proud to back Exein as it builds the digital immune system for the next decade of global infrastructure.”
Max Hauer, Innovation Economy Banking at J.P. Morgan, said: “Securing the world’s connected devices is becoming essential to the resilience of modern infrastructure. Exein is playing a pivotal role in this, and we are pleased to support the company as it enters its next phase of global growth.”

Reinforcing Thailand’s position as a trusted, high-quality destination through emotion-driven storytelling

BANGKOK, THAILAND –

The film sets to entice tourists to experience and discover the multitude of feelings to be gained from travelling in Thailand, including happiness, serenity, excitement, challenge, and warmth, to establish Thailand as a valuable and unforgettable travel destination.

Ms Thapanee Kiatphaibool, Governor of the TAT, revealed, “This year, the TAT remains committed to reinforcing Thailand’s image through the ‘Trusted Thailand’ strategy to warmly welcome tourists, while continuing its push to establish Thailand as a ‘Quality Leisure Destination.’ This is to build confidence among tourists who want to create valuable, unforgettable memories at every step of their journey. Recently, we launched the ‘Feel All The Feelings’ campaign, building widespread communication and awareness across various channels. We are kicking off the year with a new commercial featuring ‘Lalisa LISA Manobal’ as the Amazing Thailand Ambassador, who will showcase Thailand’s tourist attractions and the feelings evoked on each visit. The campaign aims to ‘enhance quality’ while distributing revenue and tourists to new potential areas. TAT cordially invites all Thais to be ‘good hosts’ and share memorable Thai travel experiences.

TVC ‘Feel All The Feelings‘ by TAT portrays unseen attractions and diverse emotions awaiting tourists to discover and experience in Thailand. The story’s inception was inspired by tourists’ desire to seek a range of experiences that fulfil them emotionally and spiritually, helping them ‘Feel Alive’ again. TAT is confident that Thailand can be the answer and add vivid hues to tourists’ lives, as we are a land of diversity, colour, and vitality, ready to offer an exceptional experience for visitors to feel every emotion, from happiness, serenity, excitement, and challenge, to the warmth of smiles and hospitality, the intriguing mystery of new places, and the wonder of unseen locations. We believe that every area and every journey in Thailand will not only create impressive memories but also deliver ‘feelings’ that greatly enrich the travel experience.”

In this ad, Lalisa ‘LISA’ Manobal, in her role as the Amazing Thailand Ambassador, invites everyone to experience the ‘feelings within Thailand’. LISA is often asked, “What does Thailand feel like?” and she reveals the feelings she experiences while resting and recharging in Thailand in the commercial, through every emotion, every feeling, and every rhythm of Thailand’s beauty, which is unlike anywhere else in the world. The production also features renowned stars and actors such as Win – Metawin Opas–iamkajorn, Gulf – Kanawut Traipipattanapong, and Blue – Pongtiwat Tangwancharoen, who join the journey and convey these feelings together.

The TVC showcases beautiful locations nationwide, starting with the captivating beauty of the Lanna Candle Ceremony (Phang Prateep) at Wat Chedi Luang in Chiang Mai province, followed by a spectacular view of the ‘floating pagodas’ in Lampang province. Viewers can marvel at the sea of mist at Phu Langka in Phayao province. The ads also features attractions in other regions to show that, wherever you are, there is always something to discover. Examples include experiencing the beauty of the first light of dawn at Wat Arun in Bangkok, the splendour of the Red Lotus Sea in Udon Thani province, or experiencing the sound of the cascading waters of
Thi Lo Su Waterfall in Tak province.

Furthermore, the “Feel All the Feelings“ campaign aims is to shift tourists from popular landmarks to hidden-gem destinations, increasing the quality of their spending and the value per trip, in line with the “Value over Volume” strategy.

Join “LISA“ on her journey as the Amazing Thailand Ambassador and discover feelings awaiting tourists in Thailand with the “Feel All The Feelings“ campaign. The “Feel All The Feelings“ TVC is currently available at official Amazing Thailand channels:

SCOPE’s Ultra-Luxury Residential Performance Underscores Strong Investor Confidence in Thailand’s Prime Market

Published

30/01/2026

By

BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 30 January 2026 – Amid heightened volatility across global luxury real estate markets driven by geopolitical tensions, trade policy uncertainty, and persistent inflationary pressures, Thailand’s ultra-luxury residential sector continues to demonstrate notable resilience. Within this context, SCOPE, a Bangkok-based ultra-luxury residential developer, reported total sales exceeding THB 2.6 billion in 2025, underscoring sustained confidence from high-net-worth individuals and international investors.

SCOPE Langsuan

Despite global headwinds including escalating trade disputes, rising commodity prices, and shifting monetary policies, Thailand’s prime residential market remains structurally strong. Bangkok, in particular, continues to attract foreign buyers seeking long-term residential assets that combine lifestyle quality with capital stability. Demand in this segment has been driven less by short-term speculation, and more by purchasers prioritizing quality, identity, and long-term livability.

Value Proposition in a Global Context
One of the defining strengths of Thailand’s ultra-luxury market lies in its compelling value proposition when compared to global gateway cities such as London, New York, Tokyo, or Hong Kong. Prime residences in Bangkok remain significantly more accessible in terms of price, while offering comparable and in some cases superior, standards of design, space, and lifestyle.

Performance-Driven Luxury Development
SCOPE’s 2025 performance provides a clear illustration of how well-executed ultra-luxury developments can outperform broader market trends. Despite a general slowdown in Thailand’s property market, the company achieved over THB 2.6 billion in annual sales, reflecting consistent demand within the ultra-luxury segment.

Commenting on the market outlook, Mr. Yongyutt Chaipromprasith, Chief Executive Officer of SCOPE Company Limited, said: “Thailand offers exceptional value when compared with global cities, not only in pricing but also in quality of life, project standards, and long-term livability. Many international investors view Thai ultra-luxury residences as a safe haven asset, supported by competitive rental yields, lower holding costs, and a lifestyle proposition that few markets can replicate.”

Among its flagship developments, SCOPE Langsuan recorded over 90% sales completion within 2025, reflecting strong demand from discerning buyers. The project’s success highlights a clear shift in buyer behavior: ultra-luxury purchasers are increasingly focused on authenticity, design integrity, and long-term residential value rather than speculative gains.

Central to this appeal is SCOPE’s collaboration with internationally acclaimed designer Thomas Juul-Hansen, whose portfolio includes prominent residential development in New York, notably along the iconic “Millionaire’s Row.” By engaging designers of this caliber, SCOPE reinforces its role as a developer of globally competitive, non-replicable residential projects, rather than locally derivative offerings.

This approach further emphasizes the “value for money” proposition of Thailand’s luxury market. Achieving equivalent design pedigree and spatial quality in global financial capitals would require significantly higher development and acquisition costs.

Beyond Assets: Designing for Real Living
Beyond financial performance, SCOPE’s developments are conceived as long-term homes rather than transactional assets. The company’s development framework is anchored on three core pillars: Product Excellence, Lifestyle Integration, and World-Class Hospitality.

This philosophy guides every stage of development — from spatial planning and material selection to service design and community environments — ensuring that residences are built to support genuine, long-term living.

Elevating Living Through Hospitality
A defining component of SCOPE’s ultra-luxury positioning is its proprietary ACQUA Hospitality Service, designed from the perspective of real homeowners. The concept integrates five-star hotel service principles into everyday residential living, redefining luxury as thoughtful attention to detail that enhances quality of life.

From curated common spaces designed as well-being hubs, to personalized residential services and collaborations with world-class architects and designers, SCOPE aims to establish new benchmarks for service-driven, timeless luxury in Thailand’s residential market. This evolution reflects a broader industry shift from competing on physical specifications alone to competing on holistic living experiences.

Outlook: Thailand’s Luxury Market at a Turning Point
Bangkok continues to rank among the world’s leading lifestyle destinations, recognized for its blend of global connectivity, healthcare standards, infrastructure, and cultural vibrancy. These fundamentals support its growing role as both a primary residence base and an investment within Southeast Asia.

Looking ahead, Thailand’s ultra-luxury real estate market is transitioning from price-based competition toward differentiation driven by design excellence, development standards, service quality, and long-term livability. This shift strengthens the country’s positioning on the global stage and reinforces ultra-luxury residential assets as stable, long-term investments amid ongoing global uncertainty.
