History

[edit | edit source]

The company Netatmo was created in 2011 by Fred Potter, an engineer and entrepreneur, and Jean-Pierre Dumolard.[2]

In 2012, Netatmo launched its first product: the Smart Home Weather Station.[3] In the same year, the company raised 4.5 million Euros in funds to speed up its distribution and widen its platform and product range.[4]

In November 2015, the company raised 30 million Euros in funds and sold a stake to the Legrand group.[5]

In 2016, French president François Hollande visited Netatmo's offices.[6]

In 2018, during the Consumer Electronics Show, Netatmo announced a partnership with the Muller group[7] and introduced its Smart Home Bot to control its Netatmo products.[8] The company increased its number of partnerships with large groups like Legrand and VELUX,[9] and, alongside them, it co-developed smart technologies incorporated into construction infrastructure. The VELUX ACTIVE range; designed to intelligently control indoor climates by automating the operation of windows and window coverings based on parameters such as temperature, humidity, and air quality; was also released on the market in July.[10]

Netatmo was acquired by the Legrand group in November 2018 and merged with Legrand's smart home branch. The Netatmo brand name was kept.[11]

In 2019, Netatmo announced a new partnership with the company Bubendorff, with which it released its iDiamant, a smart solution[buzzword] for Bubendorff roller shutters.[12]
