Manufacture Modules Technologies (MMT) is a Swiss joint venture SARL formed in 2015 by Fullpower Technologies in Silicon Valley and Union Horlogere Holdings headquartered in Geneva.[1]

The initial licensees are Frederique Constant, Alpina and Mondaine. Together, they are planning on offering ten different models in designer collections for both women and men.[2] Fullpower creates and manages the circuit design, firmware, smartphone applications (including sleep activity), as well as the cloud Infrastructure. MMT manages the Swiss watch movement development and production as well as licensing and support for the Swiss watch industry.[3]<ref name=“Forbes">Paul Lamkin (March 19, 2015).

In November of 2015, Movado, a luxury watchmaker originally founded in 1881, announced the release of the Movado Motion collection of fine Swiss made watches, powered by MMT’s MotionX technology platform. The collection includes the women’s Bellina and the men’s Museum Sport models. <ref name=“Elle">Kristina Rodulfo (November 16, 2015). "Movado Debuts a Smartwatch that Actually Looks Like a Watch".
