So far, 11 Asian countries have recognized Lleida.net's inventions, including Japan, China, the Gulf Cooperation Council, India and Israel.
Lleida.net's growth strategy in the electronic signature, notification and contracting market in the countries where it is present and those where it plans to be in the future, is based on a solid growth policy in intellectual property and R&D, as well as a reinforcement of its internationalization policy.
Lleida.net is the European leader in the certified electronic signature, contracting and notification industry.
The company, founded in 1995, first went public in Madrid in 2015.
