Didimi, a digital twins and information management platform for the construction industry, announced that it has raised £752k (€880k) in a pre-seed investment. The round is led by the leading deep tech VC the Creator Fund. The fresh capital will serve to expand its B2B product offering into the construction information management sector.
Founded in 2023 as a spin-off from the University of Cambridge, Didimi is a London-based startup that is building a new platform to transform information exchange and management in the construction industry.
Didimi was founded by two ex-Palantir engineers, Dr. Kyriakos D. Kantarakias and Alexander Gillies, as well as Ioannis Brilakis, who is the Laing O’Rourke Professor of Civil and Information Engineering at the University of Cambridge.
Dr. Kyriakos D. Kantarakias, Founder and CEO of Didimi, said: “Our mission at Didimi is to transform the way information is exchanged and managed across construction stakeholders. When architects and engineers exchange models in the current format, huge information loss occurs due to the fundamental interoperability problems in the industry, leading to time waste and mistakes. The Didimi platform is our ambitious answer to this problem. We are extremely grateful to have found the right investors that can back us in this vision and help us change these antiquated practices in the industry.”
