Congatec AG manufactures the computing substrate that sits inside industrial robots, medical devices, and telecom infrastructure - systems where a compromised module isn't a data breach headline, it's a physical safety event. Since 2004, the company has shipped over 10 million Computer-on-Modules (COMs), the high-performance building blocks that power embedded and edge deployments across automation, healthcare, transportation, and energy sectors. The threat surface is real: these modules run in environments where firmware integrity, secure boot, and IoT connectivity aren't optional - they're operational requirements.
The company's technical stack spans embedded computing, edge processing, AI acceleration, and system consolidation. Its aReady. ecosystems bundle COMs with services and customizable technologies designed to accelerate development from module to cloud, with security and connectivity baked in at the hardware layer. Congatec is a founding member of the Standardization Group for Embedded Technologies (SGET) and has been involved with PICMG since its founding, actively shaping open standards that govern how embedded systems are designed and secured industry-wide.
Headquartered in Deggendorf, Germany, with operations across EMEA, APAC, and the USA, Congatec reported $192 million in revenue in 2023. The company works with over 25 global sales partners to distribute modules into verticals including medical technology, robotics, and telecommunications - sectors with strict regulatory and safety requirements that demand hardware-level security from the ground up.
