What Exo does

EXO (EXO SA) is a privately held Argentine technology manufacturer and solutions integrator founded in 1978 in Buenos Aires. Operating from a 15,000 m² facility in the city's Technological District with in-house SMT production lines, the company runs eight divisions spanning branded computing equipment, professional IT training, healthcare technology, education technology, energy systems, IoT, self-service terminals, and defense solutions. Its proprietary product portfolio includes the CDM (Centro de Diagnóstico Móvil, the first nationally manufactured telemedicine unit, priced at ~USD 6,000 per unit and co-developed with Universidad Nacional de Rosario), the MEMO mobile nursing module, a family of professional simulators (SIMEX, SIMTAP, SIMAT, SICAMEP, SIMA, SIMSA, SETVI) co-developed with Media.lab, the UME mobile solar energy station, and the UGV PM EA 1 unmanned ground vehicle developed with the Argentine Army's DGID. The company holds ISO 9001, ISO 13485 (medical devices), ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 certifications and is the first Argentine technology company to hold all three management system certifications.

EXO's revenue model combines one-time hardware/unit sales (computing equipment, CDM, MEMO, UME, simulators, UGV, terminals) with professional services from the EXO Training Center. Go-to-market is heavily sales-led and tender-driven: direct enterprise and government sales for B2B contracts, public procurement (licitaciones públicas) for defense, health, and education deployments, channel partners such as Electrosof for provincial education programs, and a direct-to-consumer e-commerce storefront (TiendaEXO) for individuals and families. Primary customer segments are government (national, provincial, municipal), defense and security forces, healthcare providers, educational institutions, and to a lesser extent enterprise/utilities (e.g., EDESUR) and individual consumers. Notable cumulative contract scale includes 600,000 netbooks and 3,000 servers delivered via the Conectar Igualdad program, 12 UME units to the Argentine Army, 19 Aulas Digitales Móviles to Mendoza province, and 9 MEMO units to Hospital Municipal de San Miguel. Strategic alliances with Microsoft, Intel, INVAP, Media.lab, Universidad Nacional de Rosario, Universidad Favaloro, and Fundación INTECNUS anchor the company's position across defense, medical, and academic ecosystems.

The company is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds or institutional investors. It is currently expanding internationally (presence in Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Mozambique via NGO channels) and deepening its defense vertical through INVAP and Media.lab partnerships, while its consumer computing business provides a stable long-tail revenue base through TiendaEXO.
