Global Graphics rename goes ahead

Software Solutions

Global Graphics has announced that further to its announcement on 28 September 2021 regarding the proposed change of name to Hybrid Software, the company has now unanimously passed a special resolution. The change of name has been accepted by the Registrar of Companies for England and Wales.

The business remains a UK company with its shares listed on Euronext Brussels.

Chairman Guido Van der Schueren commented, ‘I have felt for some time that the name ‘Global Graphics’ no longer described the group’s mission, especially to the investor community. With the acquisition of Hybrid Software earlier this year it was clear that we needed a name which reflects the real nature of our business: enterprise software combined with printhead electronics for digital printing applications. I am very pleased with the strong support we have received for this rebranding.’

CEO Mike Rottenborn added, ‘The four operating companies in the group – Global Graphics Software, Hybrid Software, Meteor Inkjet and Xitron – operate under their own individual brands which are well established in the market, but it is important that investors and customers see them as part of a larger group with a complete solution for industrial inkjet manufacturing. Rebranding the company as Hybrid Software Group is an important step in the positioning of our company, and I look forward to promoting the new brand.’
