Founded in 2016, PlasmaSolve develops advanced simulation software for plasma-based manufacturing processes, helping industrial customers model and optimize technologies used in surface treatment and the production of specialized material coatings.

The company’s tools allow manufacturers to study complex plasma processes digitally before applying them in production. This can reduce development costs, improve process efficiency, and support the creation of thin, uniform, and durable coatings. While Apple has not disclosed its specific plans, industry reports suggest that PlasmaSolve’s expertise could contribute to the development of more durable enclosures and surface finishes for future electronic devices.

The transaction is another example of highly specialized Czech technology attracting the attention of major U.S. corporations. Previous cases include Oracle’s acquisition of Czech-founded API development platform Apiary and Cisco’s acquisition of Prague-based cybersecurity company Cognitive Security, among others. These deals demonstrate that Czech companies can compete internationally not only through conventional software development, but also in advanced engineering, cybersecurity, materials science, and other deep-tech fields.

For U.S. companies, Czechia offers a strong base of engineering talent, research expertise, and specialized technology businesses capable of solving complex industrial challenges. CzechTrade supports Czech companies seeking customers, technology partners, investors, and other opportunities in the United States, while also helping American organizations identify relevant suppliers and innovative partners from Czechia.
