| LYYN receives 7 million SEK (about 1 MUSD) cash injection from Östersjöstiftelsen | |||||||||||||
“We are extremely pleased to welcome Östersjöstiftelsen (The Foundation for Baltic and East European Studies) as a new owner in LYYN. With Östersjöstiftelsen’s cash injection and their experience in developing companies in a similar phase to ours, we see a very bright future. We released our first product, LYYN T38, in November last year. This has been well received by the market, especially within the offshore and submarine technology areas. Since then we have recruited over 20 resellers throughout the world, and several more are in the queue. This means that LYYN needs to grow quickly which in turn requires a stronger capital base. In addition to increased marketing investments we are also initiating the development of our next generation products, which will be adapted to the requirements of the surveillance industry, thereby opening up new, interesting markets for us.” Says LYYN’s CEO Andreas Ekengren. ”Augmenta Venture Partners has followed LYYN on its exciting journey from an early stage to today’s breakthrough. Now the company is growing from ”seed stage” and needs to increase its activities. We therefore welcome Östersjöstiftelsen as a new long-term shareholder in LYYN.” Concludes Mats Cremon, Chairman of the Board of LYYN. ”LYYN is an exciting innovation company that is at a stage that fits in well with our investment strategies. As in every other project there is a high risk but the market potential is very great. This adds up to an extremely interesting investment.” Says Per-Olof Edin at Östersjöstiftelsen. |

| RECOMMENDED READING | |||||||||||||
| Are You Right Eyed Or Left Eyed? | |||||||||||||
| Look with both your eyes and point at a distant object. Keep pointing and close your left eye. If you are still pointing at the same object you are "right-eyed". Otherwise you are "left-eyed". To be right-handed and left-eyed is a perfect combination. Such a person performs better at work than collegues with other combinations. Left-eyed right-handed people reads faster and understands quicker, shows a new study at the Modern University for the Humanities in Moscow. The experiment involved all right-handed students, but some of them had the right eye leading, the others – the left eye leading. All probationers were offered to read a text on the PC screen, the text being placed either in the right or in the left part of the screen, while the probationers’ head was oriented to the center (in such conditions, visual information from the left half-field of vision was addressed to the right hemisphere, and vice versa). It has turned out that the “left-eyed” probationers read the text quicker when it is placed on the left, than the text placed on the right. As for the “right-eyed” individuals, no such differences were noticed with them. As all the probationers are right-handed persons, the control over their leading right hand is performed by the left hemisphere. With the right-eyed, the same left hemisphere also controls the leading right eye. As for the left-eyed persons, the leading left eye is controlled by the right hemisphere, which is free from control over the leading hand’s movements. And this works out better. Therefore, the “left-eyed” persons read quicker on their left. |
