Heydata receives 3.3 million euros

The start-up offers data protection as a service. This is now convincing new investors.

The start-up Heydata has received seed funding of 3.3 million euros. The lead investor in the round is Ten VC. Existing investors Patrice Deckert, Stefan Tietze, Martin Ostermayer, Dirk Freise and Picea Capital have also invested in the company again. Heydata intends to use the new capital for product expansion and to enter new markets. In addition, further employees are to be hired.

The Berlin-based start-up wants to help small and medium-sized companies meet their data protection requirements and other legal guidelines. To this end, Heydata offers data protection consulting, software solutions and training for employees. Daniel Deutsch, Miloš Djurdjević and Martin Bastius founded the start-up in 2020. In addition to medium-sized companies, their customers include startups such as Everdrop, Vytal, Numa and Hive Logistics.

"The products in their pipeline give SMEs the opportunity to access solutions with a high level of quality and efficiency that previously only larger companies could afford," says Benjamin Patterson, partner at Ten VC.
