NavVis announced that they have received 25€m of fresh equity funding that complements the recent 20€m debt funding from the European Investment Bank (EIB), raising the total investment to 85€m.

Propelling the new era of digital reality

Around construction sites, factories, and all other commercial buildings , planners, engineers, and operators struggle with non-existent, unreliable, or inaccessible data. Therefore, people are often required to be on-site. Pandemic travel restrictions, climate considerations, and the need to digitize processes and disconnect them from the physical building and assets amplify these struggles.

NavVis provides detailed, reliable, and easily accessible data of buildings and assets fast and at an unprecedented low cost. This does not only account for cost and time savings during planning, implementation, and operations but also allows for faster decision-making and reduced time-to-market.

NavVis’s CTO and Co-founder, Georg Schroth, describes the solution best: “At NavVis, our mission is to grant immediate access to reliable information about buildings from anywhere in the world. This information is the foundation for almost all processes that touch the world’s most valuable asset class – the built environment.”

NavVis achieves this with its truly disruptive reality capture solution and SaaS platform to provide immersive access to buildings from any place, especially in the manufacturing and construction industries.

Investment in scaling and expanding

NavVis plans to leverage the investment to vastly expand operations to meet the demand for its 3D scanning and digital twin solutions. In addition to accelerating geographical growth, NavVis also plans to scale its R&D teams to further strengthen its technological leadership position in SLAM software (simultaneous localization and mapping), reality capture, visual positioning, and digital twin technologies.

The megatrends of ubiquitously overlaying our physical reality with digital content (i.e., augmented reality and the metaverse) are expected to drive explosive demand for NavVis’s 3D scanning and computer vision technology.

PREDICTIONS-SERIES-2022

NavVis CEO and Co-founder, Felix Reinshagen, said: “We are excited to have the experienced and tech-savvy team from Cipio Partners leading this funding round. And we are proud of the vote of confidence from our existing investors who all also contributed. Spatial data is a fundamental building block for digital twin technology and many industrial applications. Augmented reality and the metaverse need spatial data at scale to fulfill their promise. This new funding will allow us and our customers to capture and work with spatial data at unseen scale and utility.”

Dr. Ansgar Kirchheim, Venture Partner at Cipio Partners added: “I have been following NavVis for a few years and after joining Cipio Partners reached out immediately. Their groundbreaking technology enables the easy digitization of the built environment, which, combined with strong leadership, has allowed NavVis to grow strongly. They have really seized the market opportunity and we are very much looking forward to supporting NavVis to become the one-stop shop for all reality capture and digital twin needs.”
