Manufacture Modules Technologies Sarl is a Swiss company established in Geneva in 2015 and originally specialised in the development and commercialization of "Horological Smartwatch modules", firmware, apps and cloud. Located at Skylab, one of Geneva’s main high-tech hubs, it has lately expanded into the development and manufacturing of "E-Straps" operated with a mobile application.[1] The company offers firmware, a cloud, manufacturing, service and over-the-air facilities for upgrades. The company also offers its own apps, which bear the label “Swiss Made software”.[2]
