Founded in 2008 by Romanian entrepreneur Razvan Olosu, via a management buyout[2] of Nokia’s Automotive Group, Novero is headquartered in Düsseldorf, Germany with a main R&D center in Bochum and other business units in Toronto and Dabendorf.
Originally, Novero had both consumer products and automotive products in its portfolio. Since the management change in November 2013, Novero is solely focusing on the Automotive Business.
In November 2012, Novero acquired Funkwerk Dabendorf,[3] a former company from the Funkwerk AG. Funkwerk Dabendorf was first re-branded to novero Dabendorf and later – after the corporate identity change in 2013 – simply to Novero. The Dabendorf business unit is specialized in wireless charging, antenna coupling, Near Field Communication and is well known for the Compenser technology.
