Realdania Announces 5 New Technology Partnerships to Disrupt the Construction Industry


MADRID, July 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- These technological partnerships are a result of the first 5 winning teams led by Danish companies in the construction field that have been paired off with European Tech Startups by Tech Match, a collaborative program funded by Realdania in collaboration with BLOXHUB and FundingBox. This initiative has the main purpose of making the construction industry a more sustainable and efficient one.

"Tech Match aims to help attract international startups with leading technical solutions and know-how on the market and bring them into the development space of Danish companies that have exciting solutions and are committed to a digital and international vitamin injection," says Project Manager at Realdania, Simon Kofoed-Svendsen.

"When we match highly specialized European technology startups in IoT, artificial intelligence, and robotics technology with Danish SMEs, it ignites new innovation in the form of products, methods and knowledge which, through increased efficiency and sustainability, improves both profitability and competitiveness throughout the Danish construction sector," says Sanyu Karani, CEO at FundingBox. 

"This shows there is a great potential in developing new solutions for the industry," says BLOXHUB's Program Manager for Tech Match, Peter Landau.

The expectation is to establish between 12 and 15 Tech Matches from 2020-2021. Twice a year, an application deadline will be launched whereby Danish companies matched with EU startups, together will define a development project of 6 months duration.

Behind the program is Realdania with a grant of up to 2 million Euros, over the next 2 years. Realdania's investment is leveraged by EU-backed startups who have been funded with a similar amount.

The EU-backed startups are managed by Fundingbox, Europe's leading distributor of funds in the Deep Tech industry.
