Device developer and manufacturer Nemera has announced its acquisition of Insight Product Development, which will become the US office of Nemera’s “Insight Innovation Center.” The company’s other design center office is located in La Verpillière, France. Insight’s capabilities include early stage development of DPIs, MDIs, and connected devices. According to Nemera, the Insight Innovation Center employs a total of 150 people.
