History
Established in 1990 in Munich, Germany, Identiv originally operated under the name SCM Microsystems GmbH. The company secured venture capital funding from Index Ventures and went public on the Nasdaq stock exchange in 1997, at which time its headquarters were located in California, USA.
In 2009, a merger took place between SCM Microsystems and Hirsch Electronics, alongside the acquisition of Bluehill ID. Following this consolidation, the entity was rebranded as Identive Group, later abbreviated simply to Identiv in 2014. Further expansion occurred in 2018 when Identiv acquired both Thursby Software Systems and 3VR.
