uCORE Systems closes first financing round for 800,000 euros

uCORE Systems receives 800,000 euros in fresh capital. ISB and 3B Beteiligung invest in care and security technology.

Andernach, May 28, 2025 - The tech startup uCORE Systems has successfully completed its first round of financing and secured fresh capital of around 800,000 euros. In addition to the founders themselves, 3B Beteiligungs GmbH and Investitions- und Strukturbank Rheinland-Pfalz (ISB) also participated in the round.

The company is developing a modular platform for intelligent security and care support, which is used in particular in areas such as care for the elderly, assistance for the disabled, emergency detection, assisted living, building automation and energy efficiency.

From the idea to the platform

uCORE was founded by a six-person team comprising Axel Albrecht, Rudolf Lang, Reiner Wichert, Michael Fipper, Dr. Peter Klein and CIO Alexander Schmierer. The vision: to create a technological infrastructure that provides support where human care reaches its limits - for example through smart sensor technology, targeted alarms or automated control systems.

After three years of intensive development work, uCORE has evolved from the first prototypes to a marketable platform. The solution combines hardware, software and interfaces (APIs) to create a system that can be flexibly adapted to individual requirements.

Technology for social needs

The focus is particularly on areas of application with a high social need. In care for the elderly and disabled, for example, uCORE can help to relieve staff, improve response times and increase safety without restricting the independence of the people being cared for.

Using technology where it really helps people - that is our goal.

Daniel Kurz, CIO and Co-Founder uCORE Systems GmbH

The technology is also used in smart buildings and energy efficiency, for example for the automated control of heating, lighting and emergency systems.

Strong team and long-term vision

The founders see the completed financing round as an important milestone. The new funds will be used to further develop the technology, build up the team and enter the market in additional pilot regions. At the same time, uCORE plans to further expand its partnerships in the healthcare and social sectors.
