What does your company stand for?
We build software that allows organizations to get the full potential out of digital twins. There are companies that achieve cost advantages of more than 1000 X with digital twins compared to, for example, physical prototypes or processes. But for most of them, if they use the potential at all, the cost advantage is hardly greater than one. This is the gap where we come in.
Where and how did you come up with the bright idea to found the company?
There were many influences. The market, i.e. customers, research, but also industry experience.
How did the founding team come together?
Several ways, but all connected to KIT in some way. For example, we got to know each other through research projects and Professor Terzidis’ Acclerator upCAT.
Where do you see the hurdles in the start-up process? Where did you get support?
Pressing the start button, i.e. getting started. We were supported in particular by colleagues from the KIT Gründerschmiede and EnTechnon. For example, Dr. Blattner and Dr. Braun with financing, or Professor Terzidis with establishing contacts to mentors.
