"The acquisition will speed up our target of becoming a leading software company also in infrastructure and support our vision of creating fully autonomous buildings that continuously learn from and adapt to the needs of their tenants," said Matthias Rebellius, Member of the Managing Board of Siemens and CEO of Siemens Smart Infrastructure.
The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2022.
Siemens held cash and equivalents of €9.495 billion as of March 31, 2022.
