Cognigy raises US$15 million
DTCP's investment increases the Series B financing round to 59 million US dollars.
The software start-up Cognigy receives 15 million US dollars from Hamburg-based investor DTCP. This brings the Series B financing round to a total of 59 million US dollars. Insight Partners, DN Capital, Global Brain, Nordic Makers and Inventures had previously invested in the start-up. "Closing the expanded round with DTCP's investment is another big step forward as we expand our activities in Europe, North America and Asia and support a growing network of partners and strategic alliances," says Philipp Heltewig, CEO and co-founder.
Heltewig and Sascha Poggemann founded Cognigy in 2016. The company's customers now include Biontech, Lufthansa, Bosch and Daimler. With Cognigy AI, the company has developed a conversational AI platform for the creation of voice and chatbots for customer service. With this platform, even people without a technical background can create virtual agents and offer them in over 100 languages. This should enable companies to improve their service quality and reduce operating costs.

Hello my friend, have you been stranded on the German edition of Startbase? At least your browser tells us, that you do not speak German - so maybe you would like to switch to the English edition instead?
