Vectoflow raises 4 million euros

Munich-based startup Vectoflow announces the completion of its Series A financing round. The four million euros come from new major investors, including Bayern Kapital, WN Invest, and Asto One Investment, as well as existing seed investors AM Ventures and KfW Banking Group.

Vectoflow specializes in the development and production of Metal probes for flow measurement for every application area. Using 3D printing processes, the Munich-based company has been able to produce both the smallest and the most temperature-resistant probe in the world. Vectoflow has also already received important awards such as the German Innovation Award and received the German Founders’ Prize.

With the money from the now completed Series A, the startup drive expansion into series production of measuring instruments for the aerospace and energy markets. Collaboration with new partners will also expand the company's global reach.

Katharina Kreitz, Co-founder and Co-CEO, says:

"Our track record has built trust with our current customers, which we intend to leverage as we expand into existing and new markets. I am particularly excited about our forays into aerospace and wind energy, as these are future markets with significant societal relevance. The collaboration with the new investors is a significant milestone, and we look forward to our shared future."

Further development into series production

Johann Oberhofer, Managing Partner of AM Ventures, is convinced that Vectoflow will set new standards with its probes:

"We are proud to have supported Vectoflow in its early stages. Katharina Kreitz and Christian Haigermoser recognized that industrial 3D printing is predestined for fluid dynamic measuring devices due to its design freedom, which enables very complex structures. The fact that Vectoflow's customers are now focusing on series projects underscores the expertise in research and development that has been carefully cultivated over the years."

The Managing Director of Bayern Kapital, Monika Steger, commented:

"With its innovative character and high-tech solutions, Vectoflow embodies exactly the type of company we are looking for. The combination of an interdisciplinary founding team and their comprehensive expertise makes Vectoflow a pioneer in its field."
