Think Silicon

Microsoft will create a robotic process automation (RPA) development center in Athens, spokesman Charles Lamanna said last week in a teleconference with Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis following the information technology giant's recent acquisition of Greek-owned software company Softomotive.

Patra-based startup Think Silicon has been bought out by Nasdaq-listed Applied Materials, in what is Greece's biggest acquisition in the deep-tech sector. Sources say the price exceeds 20 million euros, pending the official statement.
