Hi Dan

No, location is same

They do 3 OST and not one only so that they don’t have to stop operations.

They are on a market that is completely changing those days and they have a very ambitious goal with acquisitions (at the time the OS will take place, there will be 200 people more in the company, and they are invited) and diversification. They have begun looking for new markets and hope to continue that with the OS. So their expectations are huge : new organizational models for a new company, new projects, new synergies, hopefully a new management model.
