The pop in their job – motivations:
Five of us started Silexica in a loft in Aachen in 2014 with a plan, a vision and a pretty raw solution. Every single day since then the company and product has got bigger or stronger. We now have offices in Japan and the USA and are delivering solutions to real and acute computing problems faced by the automotive industry.
