We are proud, just like last year, to be ranked as global market leader in both the "Network Cameras" and "Security Cameras" categories. For the first time, Axis is now also ranked as market leader in the "Video Encoders" category.

Investments in technological development have enabled the release of a number of new and strategically important products and solutions during the period".
