POELLATH advises TRUMPF Venture on investment in kiutra
Kiutra develops magnetic cooling systems that can reach ultra-low temperatures without the need for rare and expensive liquid gases. Such magnetic refrigerators play a key role in the research and development of quantum technologies. Kiutra was founded in 2018 as a spin-off of the Munich Technical University.
With around 14,800 employees, the high-tech company TRUMPF offers manufacturing solutions for machine tools and laser technology and generated sales of EUR 3.5 billion in 2020/21.
