Laxey has completed a €46.7 million capital increase, equivalent to approximately ISK 6.7 billion, to finance the continued development of the company in Vestmannaeyjar.

We would like to thank Laxey for this fruitful collaboration and extend our sincere congratulations to the company on reaching this important milestone in its development.
