"Tech Market Pulse - Sentiment, M&A and funding activities" - Kai Panitzki took part in a panel organized by Drake Star and CMS Deutschland. Together with Jörg Binnenbrücker (Capnamic ), Jan Sessenhausen (Cusp Capital), Julian Riedlbauer (Drake Star) and Klaus Jäger (CMS Germany), he discussed the relevance of #sustainability and #AI in new and existing investments. The panel participants also shared their perspectives on the challenges and opportunities of larger financing rounds in #Europe and discussed exit options ranging from #PE to #IPOs. Our key takeaways from the joint discussion: - #MarketAccess: in addition to growth capital, the role of investors in the collaboration with startups is above all a strong industry network and thus market access. - #GrowthCapital: The lack of financing in later stages represents a lost potential for German and European investors, as investments, especially in larger investment rounds, are made in the early stages or come from abroad. - #DevelopmentPotential: In addition to the more positive market outlook, there is great development potential that needs to be leveraged in order to sustain this promising development. The Realyze Ventures fund focuses on #technology solutions in the #construction and #realestate industry that offer visionary solutions to the industry's biggest challenges - to achieve an innovative and CO2-friendly future. Thank you to the organizers and participants for the valuable insights and discussions! Copyright photos: CMS Deutschland #RealyzeVentures #VC

Heat pumps have proven to be a key tool in the global transition to #cleanenergy and have been identified as the most important future heating technology in several #netzero scenarios. Researchers now presented evidence that #heatpumps are proven to exceed efficiency of gas boilers, even when temperatures drop below freezing. Their study also highlights the high adoption per household of this technology by countries with colder climates like #Finland and #Norway: “These countries have installed heat pumps for decades and see the highest heat pump penetration both in terms of existing fleet and new sales.” Our portfolio company Vamo accelerates Germany's #heating transition by focusing on heat pumps. Their mission is to make #greenheating with heat pumps feasible and affordable for everyone, thereby playing a crucial role in the #decarbonisation of the #building industry.

How can the built environment be retrofitted? Our engaging panel discussion at #PropTechVienna focused on the future of sustainable #building and #retrofitting. Manfred Heid explored untapped potentials for the #transformation of the industry together with the panelists: - Hoang Anh Nguyen (Head of Communications & Sustainable Construction at alcemy) demonstrated the potential for reducing CO2 emissions and saving resources in construction projects - Guy German (CEO of Okibo) provided insights into the value of robotics in the transformation of #existingbuildings - Christoph Degendorfer (Founder & Managing partner of smino) shed light on the challenges in the process and how they can be tackled with innovative tools - and Nico Dehnert (Co-founder and COO of Optiml) discussed why it is so difficult to #decarbonize portfolios, despite the fact that building renovation is not a new topic and the technologies are already available. Technological solutions, such as those presented by the industry experts on our panel, offer great potential for increasing the efficiency and sustainability of #construction processes. In the current challenging market environment, the industry must exploit these untapped opportunities in order to achieve goals such as #NetZero.

At #PropTechVienna last week, Prof. Dr. Alexander v. Erdély FRICS and our Managing Partner Manfred Heid analyzed the current state of the construction and real estate industry and identified future success factors in a transforming sector. In the fireside chat, the former CEO of CBRE Deutschland GmbH and future Spokesman of the Board of the Federal Agency for Real Estate (BImA) outlined why he expects a #bright future for the #realestate industry despite the current challenging market situation: - To achieve a successful future, the industry needs to #collaborate: Planning, building and operating must be considered together. Building "bridges" between the various fragments of the real estate ecosystem and reducing #complexity are crucial. - Operating costs are a multi-fold of #construction costs and therefore offer great savings potential, bearing in mind the entire #lifecycle of #buildings. - On the road to #climateneutrality, Prof. Dr. Alexander v. Erdély FRICS emphasizes that in future we will have to consider whether we optimize our #buildingstock to reduce #CO2emissions or whether we reduce CO2 emissions in #energygeneration - this varies from country to country. Thank you very much for the interesting discussion, Prof. Dr. Alexander v. Erdély FRICS. And many thanks for the invitation to PropTech Events.

Can robots solve the shortage of construction workers? - The shortage of skilled workers is affecting the #construction and #realestate industry and poses major challenges for the sector in course of the #energytransition and #decarbonization. To meet demand, the industry would need to hire 500,000 additional workers above its normal hiring levels. We believe that the shortage can be addressed in two fundamental ways: We need to bring more new skilled workers into the trades and we need to make the craftsmen more productive, efficient and effective. That is why Realyze Ventures invests in business models that address either sides. #TechInsights: Autonomous robots like Okibo are driving the #digitalization and #automation in the industry. Our Managing Partner Manfred Heid emphasizes that the drywall finishing and painting robot by #Okibo “operates seamlessly alongside workers on a construction site relieving them of hazardous, strenuous or repetitive tasks”. This #technology will soon be a key differentiator and is one way of ensuring that the industry can continue to deliver in the long term. These #VCInsights are based on Deloitte's “2024 Engineering and Construction Outlook” and a study by Associated Building Contractors - East Carolina University Chapter (ABC ECU) from GlobeNewswire. #RealyzeVentures #VC #VentureCapital #Robotics #Handwerkermangel Guy German Nadav Shuruk
