“The addition of DelaneyBiometrics intellectual property further increases Fulcrum Biometrics’ share in the biometrics solution market, and expands our geographic reach into Western and Central Europe,” said Ken Nosker, CEO of Fulcrum Biometrics. “With the backing of our parent corporation, Fujitsu Frontech North America Inc., Fulcrum is aggressively expanding our multi-modal biometric solution offerings and looking to move strategically into new territories.”
In April of 2020 Fulcrum Biometrics was acquired by Fujitsu Frontech North America Inc. (“FFNA”). The acquisitions goal, spearheaded by FFNA’s CEO Michi Sugawara, is the broadening and strengthening of Fujitsu’s biometric solutions and consulting business. The newly formed FFNA Biometrics Division is led by industry veteran Ken Nosker who also maintains his role as CEO of Fulcrum Biometrics, Inc. which is being run as a wholly owned subsidiary of FFNA. Since the acquisition by FFNA, Fulcrum Biometrics has announced new offices in Johannesburg, South Africa and now, with the conclusion of the DelaneyBiometrics acquisition, in High Wycombe, United Kingdom (about 30 miles from London, and close to Heathrow airport). Fulcrum has retained the Delaney offices together with key technical and operational employees to carry on the existing business.
