Founded in 2002, the Toulouse-based company POLE STAR has become the recognized leader in the field of indoor geolocation via its 3D system called NAO Campus®. This technology allows to locate a person or an object in all types of indoor buildings (shopping malls, train stations, airports, convention centers and exhibition centers, underground parking lots, industrial sites, offices,…) where usually the GPS signal does not penetrate. iXO PE’s intervention aims at financing the growth of POLE STAR with the opening of a subsidiary in the United States and a reinforcement of the team.
