Leuven, January 25, 2021 – 7h30 CET – CRESCENT NV (Euronext Brussels: OPTI), was requested by her major (reference-) shareholder VAN ZELE HOLDING NV to publish the following press release.

VAN ZELE HOLDING NV (VZH), with Mr. Eric VAN ZELE as its CEO, has long pursued strategic participations in innovative and/or promising technology companies such as Volta Ventures, BLCC, Crescent, etc.

In this context, VZH already holds a minority stake in a Dutch IoT company REMOTICOM HOLDING BV (and related companies), and is about to increase this participation, and may even acquire a majority stake in the future.

Such transactions will, in whole or in part, be executed through share swaps with CRESCENT NV shares.

Its focus is mainly the Netherlands, and surrounding countries. Remoticom was looking for a strategic investor to help realise its growth objectives.
