Nano Dimension Ltd. announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell MarkForged, Inc. (“MarkForged”), a wholly owned subsidiary, to Stratasys Ltd. (“Stratasys”) in an all-cash transaction valued at $42.5 million. The transaction represents another major step in Nano Dimension’s previously announced three phase strategic plan, which is being executed in parallel, and further advances the Company’s Phase 3 progress toward maximizing long-term shareholder value. Phase 1 focuses on streamlining operations and reducing cash burn through efficiency initiatives and disciplined cost management. Phase 2 focuses on the monetization of product lines to simplify the business and strengthen the balance sheet. Phase 3 focuses on evaluating strategic alternatives to maximize long-term shareholder value and selecting the most compelling path forward. The sale of MarkForged, Inc. is part of Phase 2 of our strategic plan. The transaction is expected to reduce annualized cash burn by approximately $15 million through a combination of

Tata Elxsi, a global leader in design and technology services, announced the launch of ViTel™, a Material Intelligence solution for Medical Device manufacturers, co-developed with Viridium AI, a material intelligence platform company. ViTel™ is being formally introduced at DeviceTalks Boston 2026, where Tata Elxsi is presenting its latest advances in AI-powered MedTech engineering and compliance. Medical device manufacturers are facing a new operating reality. Material decisions now affect margin, resilience, product velocity, and market access, yet critical product knowledge remains buried across BOMs, supplier documents, ERP and PLM systems, and expert teams. This makes every new regulation or customer requirement a costly manual exercise. ViTel™ addresses this by creating a reusable Material Intelligence layer across the enterprise, helping teams identify material and supplier dependencies, assess country-of-origin and sourcing exposure, evaluate alternatives, and understand where product or material risks affect cost, continuity, or market access.
