Inside the Headlines
The technology and software provided by Fluxa speeds up the availability of latest drugs, vaccines and therapies for critical illness. The buyout will enable Emerson to leverage Fluxa’s PKM software coupled with its DeltaV control system and life sciences automation software to provide customers with a comprehensive line of solutions for developing new drugs.
The addition of Fluxa complements Emerson’s software and solutions portfolio. This acquisition will help the latter deliver lifesaving therapy and medicines to patients in less time. It’s worth mentioning that Emerson also invested in Fluxa’s equity in 2021.
