Advised Brolis on strategic technology partnership with BouMatic
Our Corporate and M&A team advised Brolis and its subsidiary, Brolis Sensor Technology, a Lithuanian deep-tech company specialising in mid-infrared laser sensing, on entering a strategic technology partnership with BouMatic, a global leader in dairy automation systems.
The transaction focused on integrating Brolis’s proprietary MilkGenius analyser into BouMatic’s robotic milking platforms (including the Gemini UP), enabling real-time, in-line milk composition diagnostics. This innovation provides dairy farmers with precise herd-level insights and represents a major step forward in precision livestock farming.
Our team provided comprehensive corporate and transactional support, including:
-
Structuring the technology integration and commercial collaboration framework;
-
Drafting and negotiating the strategic investment and shareholders’ agreements, including detailed licensing, warranty, and IP ownership provisions;
-
Advising on regulatory compliance and governance for future developments.
This matter is strategically significant because:
-
It enables Brolis to commercialise its cutting-edge technology globally through integration with one of the world’s leading dairy automation manufacturers.
-
It marks a milestone transaction in the AgriTech and deep-tech sectors, combining advanced sensing with industrial-scale automation.
-
It required sophisticated legal work to balance long-term commercial flexibility with robust IP protection, an essential element of high-stakes innovation alliances.
The deal underscores our ability to support founder-led technology companies as they scale internationally, enter strategic partnerships, and navigate cross-border complexities. It also reflects our strength in advising on M&A-adjacent collaborations, where licensing, integration, and commercialisation play a central role.
