The Rennes, France-based Etiam has created an American subsidiary to extend its activity and gain market share in the United States.

For 10 years, Etiam has made its products available in the U.S. market. Emmanuel Cordonnier, president and co-founder of Etiam, said the expansion “is the most effective way to support our partners, to have a better understanding of the market and its needs, and also to extend our activity.”

The subsidiary will be headquartered in Cambridge, Mass.
