Six million euro seed funding for Aeditive

The new investor is the Cologne-based VC BitStone Capital. Now the market entry is to follow.

The Hamburg-based start-up Aeditive has successfully completed its seed financing round. The six million euros come from the VC and company builder BitStone Capital and the old investor Atlantic Labs from Berlin. Business angels participating include Young Sohn, formerly of Samsung, Sebastian Pollok (ex-Amorelie) and Marc Stilke, formerly of Immobilienscout24. The strategic investor will be Glatthaar Holding from the Black Forest, Europe's largest manufacturer of floor slabs and prefabricated cellars.

Aeditive is working on a 3D printer for precast concrete components. The components are planned using proprietary software. "The industrialization of the construction industry has enormous potential and we are excited to be on board and bring our extensive network to the table," said Kai Panitzki, Managing Partner at BitStone Capital. "We have been working with the Aeditive team since 2019 and are excited about the combination of unique technology and entrepreneurial drive to help an entire industry leapfrog technology with it," says Lukas Erbguth, Principal at Atlantic Labs.

Now the market entry in Germany is to follow. "In this context, the demand is already greater than we can meet with our current team," says Alexander Türk, CEO & Co-Founder of Aeditive. "Recruiting will be a core task for us. We will greatly expand our team of experts to further develop our multi-layered product with software, hardware and material components."
